Default Mass Uninstall Link
I would like to have a link to "Mass Uninstall" all hacks we have installed. Now that 3.5 is out, getting updates on 3.0 hacks that I dont use anymore is useless, and it takes quite a bit of time to go through 12 pages of hacks and click the Uninstall link on each one

So a link to mass uninstall all hacks so we can start with a clean slate would be very useful

But the hacks I installed were for 2.X or 3.0.X ... why should I keep recieving emails for hacks I dont use anymore since I've upgraded to 3.5?

I agree the main reason behind the installed feature is too keep track of the hacks you currently use for you board.

Exactly. So if I dont use them, I dont technically have them "Installed" and yet I will still recieve emails for updates and new versions.

Yeah I've always used the list for that function... Although I've already manually uninstalled everything I used in 3.0.x.

If people are worried about install counts change the .org code so u have total installs and current installs. Current installs get updates and is shown in your installed hacks. Total installs never go down.

That's a good idea. But how would the system know to differentiate between total and current installs? Perhaps it should be automatically done by forum... like, if the install was done in the 3.5 forums, the user can choose 3.5 and it will only bring in email updates for 3.5 installs.

Hmm, I wondered why some of my 'counts' had gone down slightly, it never occured to me that people would uninstall as they moved from 3.0 to 3.5.

lol, am I the only person who has made this suggestion? Here I thought it'd been suggested numerous times and turned down for whatever reason
