Is it safe to delete old, disabled modules from the back office?
Generally yes, but with caution. Before deleting: (1) Make sure the module is actually disabled and not just deactivated in the back office — some modules add database tables and hooks that need proper uninstallation. (2) Use PrestaShop's "Uninstall" button first, which runs the module's uninstall script and cleans up database entries. (3) Then delete the module folder. Do not just delete the folder without uninstalling first — you will leave orphaned data in the database.
