Hello,

I have uninstalled some problematic third party apps and I have completely removed them from all addons directories. After refreshing the app list, logically, I would expect that they would no longer appear in the apps list. Yet they still do. 

As I do not want anyone going back in and trying to reinstall them - and subsequently reimplementing the problems. They need to removed from the list entirely.

Does anyone know how can I remove all reference to them entirely in odoo?

I'm using V17 but have noticed this behaviour in 16 and 15 - and it occurs on odoo.sh and on on-prem servers. 

The second big side affect is the issues they cause when attempting to upgrade.

Thank you.
