While removing items from Sitecore, always use the Remove links option (although it is sometimes necessary to use Scan for broken Links between the steps). All item paths are preceded by a database name (master or core). File paths are relative to the main Sitecore installation path on the server.

  2. Delete the master/sitecore/content/XTM Translation item and all of its sub-items.

  3. Delete the /master/sitecore/templates/XTM/XtmSettings item.

  4. Delete the /master/sitecore/templates/XTM item and all of its sub-items.

  5. Delete the /master/sitecore/System/Workflows/XTM Translations item.

  6. Delete the /master/sitecore/system/Dictionary/XtmAddToQueueSimpleFilter item and all of its sub-items (only applicable to the connector version between 2.5 and 3.2).

  7. Delete the /master/sitecore/system/Dictionary/ImportTypeOptions item and all of its sub-items (only applicable to the connector version between 2.5 and 3.2).

  8. Delete all ribbon chunks (you need to switch to the core DB to do this – more details below):

  • /core/sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Chunks/XTM Translation/TranslationReport,

  • /core/sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Chunks/XTM Translation,

  • /core/sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Ribbons/Default/XTM,

  • /core/sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Strips/XTM/XTM Translation,

  • /core/sitecore/content/Applications/Content Editor/Ribbons/Strips/XTM,

  1. Empty the Recycle Bin for the master DB and core DB (you need to switch between the master and core DB to do so).

  2. Delete these files: /sitecore/shell/Themes/Standard/Xtm.zip and /sitecore/shell/Themes/Standard/XtmNewIcons.zip (if the connector version is 2.7 or higher).

  3. Delete this folder: /XtmFiles/.

  4. Delete this folder: /XtmData/.

  5. Delete this folder: /App_Config/Include/Xtm/ (or /App_Config/Include/LjungbergIt/ – if the connector version is below 2.0).

  6. Delete this file: /App_Data/packages/<XTM connector installation package>.zip – this is optional since these are the packages that are uploaded to the server when the connector is installed/upgraded.

  7. Delete files whose names start with XTM (dlls, configs, pdbs, etc.) from the /bin/ folder.

  • The XtmAssemblies FOLDER which contains all dlls used by the connector: HtmlAgilityPack.dll, RestSharp.dll, DotNetZip.dll, RestSharp.dll, FluentValidation.dll, Sentry.dll, Sentry.Platform.Abstraction.dll, Sentry.Protocol.dll, Swashbuckle.Core.dll, AutoMapper.dll. The folder was added in v.3.1. Before, it was called HtmlAgilityPack. Do not delete the dlls in the bin folder itself. Depending on the version of the connector, not all dlls will be present in your case (make sure that you do not use the dlls listed below in other plugins).

  1. In the Breaking Links window, choose Remove Links.
