How do I uninstall Microsoft edge? [duplicate]

  • 772

I just install Microsoft Edge browser using a deb package.

Now I can not uninstall it.

If I go to the menu, and right click on it, there is no option to uninstall.

If I open Discover app, Edge it not listed anywhere, I did an exhaustive search...

uninstall deb

  1. The name of the package is microsoft-edge-dev according to this link.

    To remove it, enter the command

    sudo apt remove microsoft-edge-dev

    To remove the settings and configuration files along with the program, enter the command

    sudo apt purge microsoft-edge-dev

    I don't know if the package is now stable and the suffix -dev has been removed. If the above commands does not work, you can try the following

    sudo apt remove microsoft-edge

    (you can also use sudo apt purge microsoft-edge instead of remove if you want to remove configuration files)
