Hello Akeeba, Nicholas,
Follow up ticket 37720.
You did not answer my last question for FOF 4.x, 4.1.3:
http://cdn.akeeba.com/updates/fof4_file.xml
<targetplatform name="joomla" version="((3\.(10|9))|(4\.(0|1)))"/>
I think this version is still used in J4.2? But the 4.2 is missing here.

If you read the articles I linked you to it should be clear that:
PS: The only reason Joomla 4.0 and 4.1 were listed in our old software was to facilitate site upgrades when Joomla 4 came out last year.

Hello Nicholas,
I was aware of the link about de FOF en FEF.
https://www.akeeba.com/news/1745-about-our-fof-and-fef-frameworks-and-their-future.html
We also used de Akeeba Magiceraser, for removing all the obsolute extensions.
https://github.com/akeeba/magiceraser/releases
We used it on all our 60 Joomla 3 sites.
And yes we upgrade all Akeeba extensions to only Joomla 4 versions.
And yes afterwards we uninstall the Akeeba Backup 8.
But I was not aware of manualy uninstall the FOF en FEF on Joomla 4.
You wrote in the FOF and FEF link:
Do not try to uninstall it or delete its folder. It will be automatically uninstalled when it's no longer needed.
It was not automatically uninstalled, so I thought it was still needed somewhere and did not uninstall it manualy!

Ah, I see why you got confused :) I was talking about Joomla 3. When on Joomla 3 you must not uninstall FOF and FEF because they are, indeed, used there. Since you had multiple versions of FOF I didn't want you to accidentally remove what should not be removed.
After upgrading to Joomla 4, upgrading our software, installing Akeeba Backup 9 and going through the settings migration from version 8 you can uninstall Akeeba Backup 8, then uninstall any leftover FEF or FOF installation.
