Details

Glucose inc., the author of the add-on id 5871, asked us to delete both the file and data from AMO. We'd appreciate your help.
Is there a specific reason they need everything deleted? I see that it's already been marked inactive, which prevents it from appearing anywhere public. Deleting an add-on requires quite a bit of SQL work and is a security vulnerability as someone else could take the GUID formerly occupied by the add-on and start pushing updates to their users.
I told the author that the add-ons was not shown even in the sandbox. He understood that but said the add-on was created in their work, not personally. If it's difficult to delete from the database, I'll ask him again to understand.
OK, the author understood the situation and will use another GUID for production. Thanks for your attention.
