issue uninstalling Vivaldi fixed

my copy of Vivaldi seems to be terminally broken but everything i have tried to remove doesn’t work. after using the scudo purge it is still in my start menu and it stills boots up in a broken state

what do i do to remove completely and try a fresh install

Ok i got it fixed I just need to remove vivaldi and clear the local cache.

PseudoSpock,

sudo apt purge vivaldi-stableThen, as yourself (not root): rm -rf ${HOME}/.cache/vivaldi ${HOME}/.config/vivaldi

That removes the package, and your personal stored config and cache of the browser. NOTE: rm -rf is permanent without a backup or snapshot to restore from. Don’t delete these unless you are certain you want to.

I second this ^

Install Synaptic and remove it from there. I have used Vivaldi on KDE Neon in the past and I remove it using Synaptic, although you can also remove it from Discover.
