I think these are two unrelated problems. You can’t uninstall “Disabled” plugins, they must be enabled first to uninstall.

I realize you cannot uninstall disabled plug-ins, I was just saying that it's possible to disable them, just not uninstall them (after enabling them again, of course). I just find it curious that similar destructive actions are not working at all and I also realize that the two issues may still be unrelated.

To be honest, I’d recommend taking this issue(s) to the Discord channel. People may be able to help you work through these problems in real-time.

I'll give it a shot. I always forget about Discord.

I did a little more poking around and discovered that this appears to be a browser-related issue in Safari. I've disabled the security features for this CMS domain and turned my AdGuard off as well but there's a browser-based modal that asks if you're sure you want to delete the entry or uninstall the plug-in. They won't appear in Safari but they do appear in Edge.

Why might I be unable to delete entries and uninstall plug-ins in Craft CMS Solo 3.6.12?
# Why might I be unable to delete entries and uninstall plug-ins in Craft CMS Solo 3.6.12?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2021-04-27)

I know the two things may seem unrelated but the actions are both red items in their respective dropdown menus and perform destructive tasks.

In Entries, I was unable to delete a couple of test entries and some that had been deleted in a previous version of Craft (whatever version was out on 1/8/2021; on Craft Solo 3.6.12 now) were able to be restored and now they are sitting in my Entries list, unable to be deleted. The Entries are in a Structure section,m not a single as Craft won't let you delete those from the Entries page.

I went to check to see what plug-ins I have installed that might cause an issue but nothing jumped out at me. Since I had both CK Editor and Redactor (wanted to try each out) installed, I thought I might remove one and commit to the other for the remainder of this project. I was able to disable the plug-in but not uninstall it.

In either case, no errors appear, and clicking the action causes no visible hint that anything is occurring at all.
