Manually deactivate module

[tires]

Hello!

How can I manually deactivate or uninstall a module that no longer works after updating processwire and php? Or is it enough to simply remove the folder from the sites/modules folder?

Thanks!

It depends on the type of the module. Most of the time this will work, but you might have data left in the database somewhere. That should not be a problem in most cases though. Also you'll have an entry in the DB for that module, but PW will tell you that on the modules screen and offer a possibility to delete the entry for that "missing" module.

Thank you!

Is this an official solution or some kind of hack?
I can't find an info in the documentation.
