Ubuntu Linux: Uninstall / Remove Any Installed Software

To uninstall or remove any installed software on an Ubuntu Linux system, you can use the apt-get command with the purge option.

For example, to uninstall the package-name software, you can use the following command:

sudo apt-get purge package-name
Source‮tual.www:‬turi.com

This will remove the package-name software and all its associated files and configurations.

You can also use the apt-get command with the remove option to remove the software, but keep its configuration files:

sudo apt-get remove package-name

If the software was installed from a third-party repository or outside the package manager, you may need to use a different method to uninstall it. Consult the documentation for the software for more information.
