Magento – How to remove extension (installed via FTP) completely

extensionsmagento-1.9

I need to remove several extensions that were originally installed via FTP.

I can disable the extensions by changing the status from True to False in xml file, which will deactivate extension only. But, I would like to remove the extension files with all their files.
