How to completely uninstall

  • What are all the files/folders that W3 Total Cache installed? I need to be able to completely uninstall it, as it seems to be creating a conflict with my theme or possibly another plugin so that my mobile website is not reflecting the current theme’s css, js, etc.
    (I’m not 100% that w3tc is the one causing the problem, but it’s the only one I’ve been able to narrow the problem down to)

    I found that in addition to data in the main plugins folder, it also has a “w3rc-config” folder in the “wp-content” folder, and it looks like a “Cache” folder was added as well. I’ve deleted those two, and I’ve been able to make some progress (some parts of the mobile site changed) – but it’s not all the way there yet.

    Are there any other files or folders anywhere else that I can hunt down and remove?

    Thank you

  • Having the same problem. The results I get when I speed check the site on various pages showing results as if the TC was still being installed.

    Found this now:

    Damn, follow all instructions above and the speed checking sites STILL search for the TC minyfied files.

    My file structure didn’t look anything like those mentioned in the instructions. I have this “cache” directory in WP-Content that’s filled with w3tc code. The instructions say to not worry if some of those extra files aren’t there.. well I had none of them. I’m not sure what to do at this point. I wonder if re-installing wordpress to return to only WP-essential files is a thing I should risk…

    I have the same issues. I can’t find any more files associated with TC, YET all the speed testing sites are reading from files produced by this plug when it was installed.
