[chimerax-users] Error on installing isolde

Actually, it worse than I thought.  Uninstalling the user-installed 
version of the UI bundle is not doable from within ChimeraX.  And 
uninstalling ChimeraX and reinstalling it doesn't help, because that 
only takes care of system files, not any of the user's customization.

To get rid of the user installed bundle, the first step is to find where 
on the filesystem the files are.  So start the Shell tool from the Tools 
/ General menu.  And then type in it:

     import chimerax
     chimerax.app_dirs.user_data_dir

That will  show where to go.  For example, for me on Windows, it prints:

     'C:\\Users\\gregc\\AppData\\Local\\UCSF\\ChimeraX\\1.2'

So using the Windows file brower, I would navigate to 
C:\Users\gregc\AppData\Local\UCSF\ChimeraX\1.2.   You may need to check 
"Hidden Items" in the View menu to navigate into AppData directory.  
macOS and Linux users should have an easier time going to the correct 
directory.  And they would use forward slash, /, instead of backslash, \.

The next step is to remove two directories: (1) 
site-packages\ChimeraX_UI-1.2.1.dist-info, and (2) 
site-packages\chimerax\ui.

And then, when you restart ChimeraX, you'll be back to the version that 
came with ChimeraX.

     HTH,
