I added a data pack to my small server that my friends and I play on but I decided to remove it and switch it out for a plug-in for a few different reasons. So I removed it from the datapacks folder and restarted the server but the datapacks feature still works in game. How do I properly get rid of it?

level 1
Remove the daypack from the folder rather then the folder itself or you fon do /datapack disable name
level 1
do /datapack list and see if it's still there
also, some datapacks have an "uninstall" function, like xisumavoid's sethome pack i believe
level 2
I was able to uninstall the datapacks but there commands still show up in chat for example when I type /trigger it gives me a list of the datapacks commands that I can tab thru. This isnt too big of a problem as they don't function anymore but I'd still like to know how to get rid of them.

Datapack Uninstallation (*)
About
This convention ensures that you have a way of uninstalling most of the contents of your datapack. The word "most" is used here because Minecraft does not provide the necessary tools for us to actually uninstall or remove the entirety of the datapack.
Implementation
There are no rules enforcing how you should implement the uninstallation method, as long as you do implement it. However, the following section outlines one of the many ways to implement it.
Uninstallation Function
You can create an "uninstallation function", which when ran, will remove most of the content added from your datapack. You can tell the user about this function inside your project page or anywhere you like.
