(SOLVED) How To UN-install Chrome?

Hello people...

I would like to know how to uninstall chrome. I hate chrome and don't want it installed on my computer.

Please tell me how to uninstall it!

Hi,

simply open Synaptic and type google chrome in search then right click the package and "Mark For Complete Removal" and then on apply!!.

You can also do this via a terminal with the command:

sudo apt-get remove google-chrome-stable

Wolfman - and where is synaptic? I looked under system tools menu selection and it is not there.

Why is chrome not included in the software center?

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

it is (should be) under:

Menu > System Tools > Administration > Synaptic

Google Chrome is "Non-Free" software and that is why it is not in the Ubuntu Software Centre, the term "Non-Free" just means that no one apart from Google devs can muck around with it's code!!. It is free to download and use of course!!.

Yah... I see how Linux is going... Promoted and free in code and free as is free beer.

I knew that would eventually all come to a fading end!

The whole philosophy behind Linux was to help the human race and allow us to
become a giving society. I know there's more to this, but I know people can't live
on 'Love' alone. Doesn't pat the rent.

Anyway... It's my rant.

Thanks for your help Wolfman!

Hi,

I assume that you are now sorted and have marked as solved!!.
