How do I remove the settings from Chromium program in Ubuntu 11.10? Yesterday I tried to remove from synaptic by choosing pull out its configuration. but when i try to install again from USC, the application appears as when last I used yesterday. It means that the application has not fully been removed. Is there a clean way to remove these applications?

  1. To remove the package, run this command in a terminal:

    sudo apt-get purge chromium-browser

    Then to remove all the data created by chromium (cache, personal configuration, etc...), run:

    rm -fr ~/.cache/chromium
rm -fr ~/.config/chromium
