Zoom client continually "crashes" even though uninstalled

  • 772

I installed the Ubuntu Zoom client from a .deb file. In the first meeting, it crashed, and I had to restart the client. During that same first meeting, it kept popping up with notifications saying it had crashed.

I don't use zoom a lot, so I uninstalled it. It still "crashes" about every 5-10 minutes. I keep getting a dialog pop-up (two at a time) telling me it crashed. I've searched for zoom files on the machine, and deleted them. I've restarted. I don't know what to do.

Ubuntu: Jammy (22.04.4)
Zoom: None (was latest as of 2 weeks ago).

What is causing this pop-up to continue? enter image description here

EDIT: As per a comment, here is the output of locate Zoom (which I already had installed) and plocate Zoom

    The solution was deleting a few files left over on the machine.

    • The entire hidden folder ~/.zoom
    • /var/lib/dpkg/info/zoom.list
    • /var/lib/dpkg/info/zoom.postrm
    • /var/crash/_opt_on_zoom_1000.crash
