You can delete the directory "~/.config/chromium" as well if you like.

[MMALLOW]

[MMALLOW]

[Goolie]

rm -r /.config/chromium

[dv3500ea]

Where can i find this place

Places -> Home
Press ctrl-h
double click the .config folder.
delete the chromium folder.

[VH-BIL]

rm -r /.config/chromium

Wouldn't it be:

rm -r ~/.config/chromium

For the record, it is chromium-browser folks. The package chromium is a game, that's why the OP kept receiving messages that it wasn't installed.

I have accidentally installed that game many times and wondered where is my browser lol.

:lol:

I have accidentally installed it a couple of times too.

[cespinal]

rm -rf ~ /.config/chromium/default

this one was the command I executed. It deleted my whole home folder...

[VH-BIL]

rm -rf ~ /.config/chromium/default

this one was the command I executed. It deleted my whole home folder...

That is because you have a space between the ~ and /. The remove command thinks you are giving it 2 locations to delete, your home directory being ~ and /.config/chromium/default which would not exist at that location. The ~ symbol is just a quick way of typing the path to your home folder.

Did you install this through a ppa?

EDIT:

Er, lovinglinux already said it....next time I'll read the whole thread ;)


For the record, it is chromium-browser folks. The package chromium is a game, that's why the OP kept receiving messages that it wasn't installed.

-------------------

Actually, package chromium is a transitional dummy package for a game. The package 'chromium' is NOT the chromium browser. The chromium browser package is 'chromium-browser'.


package chromium
transitional dummy package to pull in chromium-bsu


package chromium-browser
Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster,
and more stable way for all Internet users to experience the web.
So it is better to be specific and ...

So you want to type this in terminal:


sudo apt-get purge chromium-browser

and then remove any left over config folders in your $HOME directory if necessary.

If you installed the Chrome browser, not the chromium browser, then it is again a *different* package



package google-chrome-beta
Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier.

So you would type


sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-beta
