    Just not able to unregister a custom workflow activity using the plugin registration tool

    The plugin is registered on the disk in the \mscrm\server\bin\assembly folder

    ->I've deleted all processes in my CRM application

    ->I've deleted all system jobs that are not in completed status

    ->I have all the reference dlls in the /assembly folder

    ->I've deleted the plugin and its steps using the solution GUI

    ->I'm restarting the MS Async service and the www service before I try to unregister

    This is the error:

    Unhandled Exception: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault, Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]: The PluginType(cbc4913c-ba60-4784-bb3c-2e791d8992bf) component cannot be deleted because it is referenced by 1 other components.

    Hi,
    the error is quite clear, there is still one component, write a small console application to execute the RetrieveDependenciesForDeleteRequest an check what is still using this custom activity

    you can use crm->setting-> customization->process

    to delete or deactivate your workflow.

    Hi,

    In addition to using the RetrieveDependanciesForDeleteRequest message, you should be able to open the solution and select the custom workflow assemblies, then click on the 'Show Dependencies' button. This will give you a list of things that depend on this component that you must remove before you can remove the assembly.

    Hope this helps,

    Scott
