After my website had been comprimised during the weekend by a malware attack, I want to remove my previous admin tools and replace is with a complete fresh admin tools pro install.
I wanted to do an upgrade to the pro version but I had a previous version installed and this was giving me problems configuring it properly.

After I removed the installation I recieve this message below, what extensions do I have to remove before I can make a fresh reinstall.

Waarschuwing

You have 2 extension(s) depending on this version of FOF. The package cannot be uninstalled unless these extensions are uninstalled first.

Please advise what extensions I need to uninstall before I can make the new install.
I am still afraid there are some leftover files from the malware attack.

Thanks for your kind advise

Hello,

FOF is just a library of code, it's not a component itself. Even if it's installed, it won't affect your site in any way.
That said, FOF is always re-installed when you install any Akeeba software.
So you can safely install Admin Tools again, everything will be automatically updated.
