How to kill chromium snap from CLI?

  • 772

Chromium is installed as a snap. When it's running, how do I kill the process from command line? Like killall or pkill. This didn't work:

sudo snap stop chromium
error: snap "chromium" has no services
snap

    I just tested here on my laptop and it worked. Try it:

    sudo killall chrome

  2. Once running, the process launched from an app installed as a snap, is a process like any other. Use the usual tools.
