Hi @webosolar,
Thanks for your review! I’m really sorry for the confusion here.
There are recommended plugins that are only installed when they’ve been selected in the All in One SEO Setup Wizard.
There’s an option to install these plugins because they complement All in One SEO and help with the goals of optimizing sites for search engines.
If you don’t require these plugins, then you can safely deactivate and delete them and they’ll not be installed or activated again unless you run the Setup Wizard and select those plugins again.
We’re working to make this much clearer on the Setup Wizard so that you know which plugins are associated with the choices in the wizard.
Again, I’m sorry for any issues this caused you.
