remove plugins Final Cut Pro X

I've installed several trial plugins for Final Cut Pro X that I'd like to remove now. These include trial Effect/Transition plugins from companies such as Shefield Softworks, Nattress, SugarFx, PHYX, FxFactory Pro, etc. I moved the plugins from the Movies/Motion Templates/Effects (Transitions) folder to my Trash, emptied the Trash then rebooted by MacBook Pro. The plugins are gone when I check with Finder after restarting the computer. However, after I start Final Cut Pro X, the plugins all reappear in both FCP as well as in Finder. How do I remove these?

Thanks

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

you're probably using FxFactory

from noiseindustry

in your Apps-Folder, launch the app …

you're now entitled to switch-off and -on individual plug-ins.

(there are some free ones avail, as 'Pan and Zoom', a very handy Ken-Burns-like effect)

under 'Actions' you'll find the deinstaller

Thanks, I found this out after I made my posting but didn't realize there was an option to turn on/off individual plugins before uninstalling FxFactory. Looks like I'll be reinstalling it to save the ones I want.
