A mod that led to a forum crash

I recently installed the following mod on my SMF forum:
Cumulus Mod – https://custom.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=2936

The installation completed successfully, but afterward, my entire website went down. Attempting to access any page resulted in a 404 Not Found error.

To troubleshoot, I accessed the file manager and went to /public_html/Sources/. I found and deleted a file named Class-Cumulus.php (which appeared to be related to the mod). After deleting it, the website came back online.

However, my error log is now flooded with messages like this:

Hook call: function "Cumulus::hooks#" in file /public_html/Sources/Class-Cumulus.php could not be called
Hook call: The file at path: /public_html/Sources/$sourcedir/Class-Cumulus.php could not be loaded
In just one day, more than 3,000 similar errors have appeared in the error log.

Apologies if this is the wrong board, and would really appreciate support anytime soon, thanks!

there is no large upgrade archive file for 2.1.4 version, is there any simpler or less technical way to fix the problem? I'm not confident with manually replacing files or doing any deep level maintenance.

I would try to manually remove the hooks under Admin -> Maintenance areas
