Hello, i have done a verry thumb thing.
I had a Module (Sonos), which i updatet. after the update the module crashed (all nodes in these Module were unavailable), so i tried tu uninstall the module.
But since the Module had an configh file this was not possible over the Pallette Mannager. So i googled around quite a while and tried several things, but nothing helped.
Then i hoped for the best and just deletet the folder named node-red-contrib-sonos in the node_modules folder.
But like everyone might guess now the system is really broken.
Node red seems to think that the Module is still installes(shows in palette Mannager) but can't find the Modules Files and cause of these crashes on every node red start.
Although when i click on uninstall in the palette Mannager nothing happens, no error massage.

Can please sb. help me how to uninstall the remainings of these Node and for th future how to uninstall a module which has in use nodes (configh files).

Hi
you should be able to remove any config node from the menu - Configuration nodes
Inline images 1
Tthat shudl add a tab to the right hand window from where you can double click any config node and then delete it
Inline images 2
Then once deleted you should be able to remove from the palette manager

As the update to the node caused it to crash it is probably also
worthwhile opening an issue on the github site for the node, to make sure that the author hears about it.
