Could you tell me what is command for uninstalling a program that you’ve installed manually, and you want to remove it completely? For example pdfstudio, which I have downloaded, but I like to remove it completely. Thanks in advance. ---

OH, well then that would be the script install method and not one of the provided deb packages. May I ask why you didn’t scroll down the page and download the deb packages from their site instead? [https://www.qoppa.com/pdfstudio/demo/download/](https://www.qoppa.com/pdfstudio/demo/download/) ---

If you scroll down the page, it has links for both the 32 bit and 64 bit Debian (Ubuntu) deb files. Anyway, after a quick google search, I found the solution from this site: [Uninstall PDF Studio – PDF Studio Knowledge Base](http://kbpdfstudio.qoppa.com/?p=221) > [@](#): > > Go to the installation folder (Home folder/PDFStudioxx by default, where xx is the version you are running), right-click on the shell script called “uninstall” and choose the option “Run in Terminal” in the dialog that pops up. ---

Did I miss something? Got it AJSlye, and thanks for your help. I just installed Netrunner 17, and testing it as we speak. It’s very nice, and well put together. Very impressive. 😉
