Attempt to read property "columns" on null when uninstalling

[shifuma]

Description

When I try to uninstall the plugin, I get the error: Attempt to read property "columns" on null
It seems to be an issue with the Matrix fields that are created maybe?

This renders the plugin completely unusable, as some of the tables were removed before the error, and now I get:

SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'db.enupalstripe_orders' doesn't exist
The SQL being executed was: SELECT DISTINCT(currency) currency from `enupalstripe_orders`

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to Settings > Plugins
2. Try to uninstall Stripe Payments

Same error happens when trying to manually delete the YAML and reapply project config. This is trying to remove the checkbox matrix block type:

removing matrixBlockTypes.0eab815e-bf09-4502-ab69-e2f2417e0912 ...
error: Attempt to read property "columns" on null

Restoring from a backup, it seems I somehow have 4 versions of each of the field types. But I'm struggling to get rid of them.

Hi @shifuma About your last two messages I was able to recreate this issue. Please update your plugin to v5.2.0 now your changes will be propagated to your prod envs. Please let me know if you still have issues.
