How to Uninstall a Plugin in Safari for Windows?

Hi,
Im using Safari 4.0.3 on Windows XP and can view my installed plugins through Help>Installed Plug-ins, but how do I uninstall plug-ins?
I know that on the Mac they are stored in specific folders but I dont know how it works in Windows. How do I uninstall Safari plugins in Windows?
Thanks,
Dan1ell

I am also trying to do this. I am trying to remove the Flash plugin from Safari for Windows. Anybody know how to do this?
Or, is there a Flash blocker for the Windows version of Safari? That would work, too.

  • How do I view pdfs in Safari for Windows?

    Have to use Windows 7 at work. Fortunately, I can at least use Safari as my browser. Unfortunately, I can't view pdfs in Safari for Windows but I can with FireFox and IE. Any way to resolve?

    What happens when you try to view a pdf file on Safari? In my experience Safari has never worked well in Windows. Use a browser you know works.
    Did you check for a PDF reader plugin for Safari?

  • How to install new font on safari for windows??

    i have problem when i go to certain international sites.. for eg: http://www.deepika.com/
    in the help section the site provides the required font mlkr0ntt_TTF.ttf
    no luck just wont work..

    I have requested the website deepika.com, for their input on the issue.. Would love to see if a unicode font would solve the issue on Safari. The very reason I brought up this issue in this forum was to get a solution. Its not that I am unable to view the website in Internet explorer and Firefox.. I love using Safari and want to make it as my default browser, but issues like these prevent me from doing so now. When I started using Firefox, i remember facing similar issues.. and then came a Firefox Add-on developed by PCMan (Hong Jen Yee), yuoo2k from Taiwan, called IE tab (http://ietab.mozdev.org/) I was thrilled to be able to even run the Windows Update from a Firefox browser.
    Safari Developers are you taking notes..??
    Friends, I expect to watch Apple come out with an AD similar to the 'Get a mac - Refree' http://www.apple.com/getamac/ in future when comparing with IE and Firefox.

    My safari browser seems to have been taken over by a malicious program called only-search.  Does any one know how to uninstall this program from safari?  I am running osX 10.10.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
    Step 2
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • How to uninstall java plugin without removing JRE completely

    how to uninstall java plugin without removing JRE completely.
    Hope someonce can help, all the documentation ive seen till now shows how to uninstall the Java plugin by completely removing the JRE.
    Also if you install JRE 1.4.1_01 and do not choose to install the browser plugin on the browers prompted ... does it not install the plugin?

    In IE
    Tools -> Internet Options -> Settings -> View Objects
    Delete the ActiveX control for the Java Plugin
    This removes the ActiveX control (plug-in) from the browser but doesn't delete the JRE.

  • How does one stop Safari for Windows from auto resetting itself?

    Safari for Windows running on XP Pro SP2 on a Dell Latitude D520
    gets its settings reset automatically somehow. Also, the saved
    userids/passwords randomly get "lost". These behaviors occur whether the
    system is left running (with Safari terminated) then Safari is
    started or when the the system is put in sleep mode (with Safari
    terminated) and Safari is started after waking the system or when
    the system is put into hibernate state (with Safari terminated) and then
    Safari is started when the system is woken from hibernation. The
    resetting and lost UIDs/PWDs is a random occurrence; it may, or may
    not, occur after any one of the three use cases described above.
    This behavior is becoming very annoying and will cause me to dump
    Safari for Windows as my patience wears thin.
    Any known solutions or suggestions will be greatly, and gratefully, appreciated.

  • Safari for Windows plugin

    Hi,
    I'm trying to develop a plugin for Safari for Windows. I am using the same codebase for FF3 (Windows and Mac) and Safari (Mac), all of which work fine. Safari for Windows is not finding the plugin, however, despite the fact that I placed the DLL in Program Files\Safari\Plugins. I've scrutinized the version table in the resources of another plugin that works, under the assumption that this is where Safari gets info about the plugin, and I've adapted mine so it seems to match. But still no luck. The plugin doesn't show up when I view the Installed Plugins in Safari.
    I haven't been able to find any documentation or examples about Safari for Windows plugins. Can someone help? What do I need to do to get the plugin to show up in the Installed Plugins list? A working example would be fantastic.
    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

    We (Sun) don't have much experience with Safari on Windows at this point. Going forward, the new Java Plug-In in 6u10 should work with Safari on Windows, once Safari upgrades their NPAPI and NPRuntime interfaces to the versions in Firefox 3.

  • How to fix blocked plugins in safari on a Mac OS X

    How to fix blocked plugins in Safari on my Mac OS X?

    Which plug-ins, specifically?
    If the plug-in was disabled by Apple, it's usually because of a security update (<cough>Flash</cough>), in which case the solution is to update to the latest ('more secure') version.
    If you're on a corporate network then certain plug-ins may be disabled by your network admins - talk to them about.
    If neither of the above apply then you should be able to manage settings via Safari -> Preferences -> Security -> Internet plug-ins

    If there is nothing on the disk that is important, by all means erase it and partition it anew with sufficient space for your Windows app. But be warned that you will lose everything on the disk. Investing in iPartition will let you change things again in the future if you need to, without losing any data.
