Remove Mod Linux

[Cortney Voegele]

InLinux, deleting files or directories is a fundamental operation that every user must know. Although it may seem like a straightforward task, there are different methods to delete files or directories, each with its specific use case.

This tutorial will provide a step-by-step guide on how to delete files or directories in Linux. We will also walk through the commands you can use to remove files and folders along with their content.

Most Linux distributions come with a GUI file manager that allows you to delete files using a graphical interface. Simply navigate to the file you want to delete, right-click it, and select "Delete" or "Move to Trash."

Make sure you replace filename with the name of the file you want to delete. If the file is write-protected or you don't have sufficient permissions to delete it, you will be prompted to confirm the deletion.

The rm command is the most commonly used command for deleting files, while the rmdir and rm commands with the -r or -R options are used for deleting directories. By following this step-by-step guide, you can now effectively delete files or directories in Linux.

Am a Linux noob. Googling didn't help. List of installed packages unfiltered is absolutely massive (and nothing called dropbox), filtered by "drop" "box" or "dropbox" gives me nothing that looks like it would be it.

But from what I have gathered so far, the command line installation can be removed by merely deleting the folders/files created by it, as the functionality is linked to the attached Python script (?). So there is no actual app process running or anything beyond the one or two folders created, no background processes etc.

A person more versed in Linux than I am pointed out that the download includes a readme with information on how it works and that new users should use an installer rather than the command line method. Might be a good idea to bring that information onto the site with installation instructions, as Linux beginners... well me at least... would have a hard time finding that readme.

Those are header files are contained in the linux-headers-* and linux-headers-*-generic packages. It should be safe to remove them through apt-get. Maybe apt-get autoremove will already suggest that to you. Please do not remove them manually!

It missed one dev header package without the standard numbering, but also didnt pickup the linux-sound-base for Alsa, which might be desired. You can compare both by removing the xargs pipe, like this dpkg -l 'linux-*' sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r sed "s/(.*)-([^0-9]+)/1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* ([^ ]*).*/1/;/[0-9]/!d'

To anyone coming in off a Google search years later: You can also uninstall old kernels in the Synaptic Package Manager. Just double check which one you're currently using by typing 'uname -a' into the terminal.

To answer your question about why we don't have a better un-installation method on linux. People that contribute to Joplin don't uninstall, and people who uninstall don't contribute. That said, it wouldn't be too hard to add an uninstall option to the script, I'll add it to my list (someone else feel free to do this first).

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04, and when I rigth click on a my flash drive icon (in the Unity left bar) I get two options that have me confused: eject and safely remove.

The closer I came to an answer was this forum thread, which concludes that (for a flash drive) they are both equal and also equivalent to use the umount command. However, this last assertion seems to be false.

If I use umount from the console to unmount my flash dive, and then I use the command lsblk, I still see my device (with nothing under MOUNTPOINT, of course). On the other hand, if I eject or safely remove my flash drive, lsblk does not list it anymore.

So, my question is, what would be the console command/commands that would really reproduce the behaviour of eject and safely remove?

Arranges for the drive to be safely removed and powered off. On the OS side this includes ensuring that no process is using the drive, then requesting that in-flight buffers and caches are committed to stable storage.

umount is perfectly safe for the disk. Once you've done that you have successfully unmounted the filesystem and you needn't worry along those lines. The primary difference between eject and umount doesn't concern the disk at all - rather it is about the USB port's 5v power output.

After umount you can still see your disk listed in lsblk because it is still powered on and attached. umount an internal hard disk's file-system and you'll see the same behavior for the same reason. But when you eject a USB device you power it down and it ceases to draw the 5v it would typically - I think it trickles down to .5v but that class happened a long time ago.

Uninstallation of MediaAgent on Linux machine via CommCell is failing. So, I would like to clean up mediaagent on Linux and push a fresh media agent software onto it. Please help me with the commands to run on linux machine to manually uninstall or clean up MediaAgent.

How do I remove the 64bit agent from my linux vps server/host? I sucessfully installed it a couple months ago and its working fine, but I am going a different route now and need to remove it but I can't figure out how. Please advise. Thanks

To make sure I have this correct - - - what I need to do is whilst still in lxd is to first kill lxdbr0 (and and other networking), then I would delete all the containers (this presently needs to done one at a time) and images. Then any storage volumes need to be removed and lastly all storage pools need to be removed. Then, and only then, can lxd be removed.

erm, I just installed lxd on a Lubuntu 16.04 LTS VM with snap and it was only for a quick test, created a container, tested it, deleted it and the associated image, did a sudo snap remove lxd and no error, everything seems to have worked without a glitch. Under /var/snap there is only core, so it seems that no storage is left behind, lxdbr0 is gone too. Seems progress to me.

FOSS-wise, there is PDFCrack, not sure if it does actually remove the security though, it's just a password cracker. I generally turn to some free trial software, A-PDF Restrictions Remover, it's easier to use.

I know it is funny situation but i removed python with all associated programs from Ubuntu using sudo apt-get remove python?Obviously i can install back python, but it will take me a lot of time to install all programs that i removed.Maybe there is some solution?

Look up all the packages that got uninstalled. It is stored at /var/log/apt/history.log . You can write a shell program to install each package that was removed. Write it on any text editor GNU Emacs, vi, GNU Nano. Execute it through the terminal. All the programs that got uninstalled will get re-installed by themselves.

To add to ablackhat's answer, you can copy and paste everything after the last remove command in /var/log/apt/history.log into a new programmers editor. Regex replace :.*?, with (empty string), and copy all the resulting space-separated packages. Then run $ sudo apt-get install

Incase you also face this, please use the .gz logs kept in same folder. In some other answers on Stack Overflow, I got to know that the backup logs are kept. This rreally saved me personally speaking.

Suddenly for some reason I can't access Emby at all, not even my library. I'd like to just remove it and reinstall it. I've tried sudo apt-get purge emby but when I go to install it again my installer says it's already there.

That worked. Thanks. To answer your question, when I ran the other command, the terminal window looked like it uninstalled emby and gave no error messages but it was still there when I tried to reinstall it.

So now I've removed and reinstalled emby and it's prompting me for my server address. I've tried the default suggested addresses in the attached screenshot and also each address in my ipv4 information and nothing's connecting. I remember this process being more intuitive the first time I installed emby.

I have a problem, I configured the virtual disk with rclone brownser, when I put the folder in the emby library does not appear, what can I do? In fact, when I mount the disk, it doesn't open a folder, and when I undo the virtual disk, the other folders appear

Good morning, there is no one who can help with this problem, in Windows has Raidrive that works perfectly synchronizing with google drive and team team, in linux tried opendriver, rclone, rclone bownser, overgrive and none can freely access, folders in emby like i said raidriver in windows works great

I'm not an expert with rclone, but there are a lot of community members here who use it. Remember that Emby server runs under a system user called Emby, so you should check the permissions for that user to access to folders.

Those programs all likely run under your user account. This is where it is tricky, emby runs as a server and runs under the user account emby. There is a permissions guide on here somewhere that can help out.
