How to disable a feature without Eclipse Configuration Manager? [message #327854]

Hi,

I installed a plugin that causes Eclipse to crash on startup. I've already
posted a bug to the plugin vendor.
I want to disable the feature, but I can't since Eclipse does not start,
therefore I can't access the Help->Software Updates->Manage Configuration
menu.

¿Is there a way to do this? ¿Maybe editing a configuration file?

Thanks,

Mariano.

You could remove the plug-ins and features from the the "plugins" and
"features" directories and then start Eclipse with "-clean" on the
command line.

HTH,

Wayne
