 * How i can remove plugin, custom roles and capability, and use default roles of
   wordpress?
    For my purpose they are ok, i don’t need another plugin…
 * Thanks!

 * Click on the Plugins menu option in the WordPress Dashboard.This will list all
   the plugins available on your site. Deactivate the plugin you no longer need 
   then once it’s deactivated, you can also Delete it if you dont think you’ll be
   requiring it anymore.

 * But roles and capabilites automatically return to wordpress original? I change
   name of roles, what will appen if i deactivate without any operation before?

 * I’d suggest editing each user Profile (User menu) and setting them back to one
   of the default WordPress users and then deactivate and remove the plugin. You
   can see what the default roles are, here…
