Default Can\'t get rid of unauthorized plugins (D-Fi)

Once all my free trial's were up, i easily went into the "plugins" folder and deleted the ones that had expired and i never saw them during startup again. But, D-Fi cannot be found (i deleted it). However, upon startup it still pops up telling me it needs to be authorized. I hit "cancel" we move on and then it comes up again. and again, and again. 4 times in total. Not a huge deal but if i wanted to play an aim and click video game i wouldn't be opening PT. :P

any suggestions?
tnx

D-Fi is a bundle of these 4 plug-ins:
LoFi
RectiFi
SciFi
VariFi

You would need to remove all 4 from your Plug-Ins folder.

Aren't there also alias' of the plugins in the "applications/Digidesign/Protools/plugin alias" folder that have to be removed as well as the "library/application support/protools/plugins" folder?

When you open the folder named "Plug-Ins alias" in your Applications/Digidesign/Pro Tools/ folder, it opens the actual Plug-Ins folder in Library/Application Support/Digidesign/

There shouldn't be any alias files for the plug-ins, just an alias folder name.

I had the same probleem about a year ago. I got rid of everything I could find and still couldn't get rid of the d-fi plugs. I ended updoing a complete reinstall.

DV toolkit requires you insert the PT disk as if you were to install PT but select Uninstall from the drop down menu instead of easy install. make sure to only tick off DV toolkit or digitranslator.

Went through this with the DV Toolkit and DigiTranslator demos before. Remove the files named OMF.dll and timecode.dll from filepath Applications>Digidesign>Pro Tools.
