How to uninstall vlsub extension?

[still_learning_to_]

I installed this extension to my vlc player, following these instructions:
http://www.webupd8.org/2012/02/vlsub-vlc-extension-to-search-and.html

and now the vlc player doesn't work anymore, even though I uninstalled and reinstalled it again. The vlsub still shows up in the dropdown menu 'View' even though I actually even tried removing the whole folder (the 'vlc' part and what was in it) into which I moved the .lua file. What could I try?

Thank you for any help!

Try
sudo apt-get purge xyzThis will remove the package you installed (xyz), including configuration files that may be your problem. Cheers!

Thank you, didn't work though. Got this answer:

sudo apt-get purge vlsub

E: Unable to locate package vlsub

I didn't install the extension in Terminal, and it doesn't show in the Ubuntu Software Center either.

Or I did create the folder into whih I moved the .lua file in Terminal:
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions

No. You want:

sudo apt-get purge vlc

That should kill vlsub. Then install vlc again.
