1. Log into server via SSH as root

2. Run the below command to remove softaculous

First run the cPanel uninstall_plugin script, the command is given below.

Command : /usr/local/cpanel/bin/unregister_cpanelplugin /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/softaculous/softaculous.cpanelplugin

Then delete all softaculous folders

rm -rf /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/softaculous
rm -rf /var/softaculous
rm -rf /etc/cron.d/softaculous
rm -f /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/cgi/addon_softaculous.php
