I am cleaning up old plugins on our website, and I have found a number of Akeeba plugins I am unsure if it is safe to permanently remove. I have attached a screen shot of the plugins I've found, but I'm not sure if it is a comprehensive representation of all the old plugins present. Is there a list of plugins we should have active if we have both Akeeba Backup and Admin Tools installed? I would like to remove all the old plugins, but I'm unsure which are still in active use.
Akeeba Backup 8 (package) needs to be removed. It was the old version that bridged the gap between Joomla 3 and 4 four years ago. Removing the package will also remove the component, and any plugins which might be also included in that ancient version.
