Hi.

I am trying to see if the latest 2.96 Luxcoreblender build will work with new Blender 2.93.6 LTS, and I obtain an error when trying to uninstall previuos build (ever a 2.6 one, but earlier) from Blender Add Ons. I obtain the following error :

"
Python: Traceback (most recent call last):

location: <unknown location>:-1
"

Hence I can't even try to install the latest 2.96 Luxcoreblend build.
Please note that the actual verison is working fine with Blender 2.93.6LTS, I just want to update it.

I am using Windows 11 Pro Version 10.0.22000 build 22000, Blender 2.96.3LTS, AMD Ryzen7 3700X, 32Gb RAM, NVidia GTX1070 with 496.76 Driver version.

Someone can Help me to figure out how to update the Luxcoreblend build, if possible?

You may have installed BlendLuxCore as administrator in the past. Try to delete the directory '[[[HERE MY USER FOLDER]]]\\AppData\\Roaming\\Blender Foundation\\Blender\\2.93\\scripts\\addons\\BlendLuxCore' and to re-install BlendLuxCore.

Thanks B.Y.O.B. , it worked perfectly!
