Module List not updating after removing extension

I had MageWorx Order-Editor installed directly to app/code. I then removed it so I could install the updated version through composer. After I installed the composer version of the module, I was getting some problems so I then disabled and removed the module with composer.

Currently, I’m getting this error on the front-end of my store:

Exception #0 (MagentoFrameworkExceptionFileSystemException): The contents from the "/var/www/html/vendor/mageworx/module-ordersbase/etc/module.xml" file can't be read. Warning!file_get_contents(/var/www/html/vendor/mageworx/module-ordersbase/etc/module.xml): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

I have tripple checked that there are no MageWorx files in either vendor or app/code. There are no references to mageworx modules in composer.json/lock or app/etc/config.php.
I have also removed all references in my database to anything MageWorx related and dropped their associated tables.

grep shows that mageworx is only references in log files.

I don’t understand why Magento is still looking for this extension ????

Things I’ve tried already:
Flushed & Cleared Cache,
Deleting generated files,
bin/magento setup:upgrade,
bin/magento setup:di:compile,
deleting vendor/* and running composer install

What am I missing?
