How to remove visual studio 2012 addin menu?

I'm making addin for visual studio 2012(C#). I added a menu item with AddCommandBar method, then I changed the menu name. After that previous menu was disabled but not removed. I want to remove the addin menu but I can't. I tried these links but they don't work.

devenv /resetaddin Namespace.ClassName http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/ms228765(v=vs.110).aspx Dead items in context menu left by addin in Visual Studio

Even I try to reinstall visual studio 2012 but still that menu is alive. Tools -> Add-in Manager.. is disabled. How can I remove that addin menu?

Find CurrentSetings.vssettings file path from Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Import and Export Settings. Open CurrentSetings.vssettings xml file and find and remove all your addin related elements. Then restart visual studio 2012 IDE.

I found this link. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vsnetsetup/archive/2009/10/29/unable-to-uninstall-an-add-in-from-the-visual-studio-ide.aspx With 'reset settings from Tools/Import and Export Settings', I can remove disabled addin menu.
