Complete removal of Brave Browser in LMDE-5 Elsie
by ejism from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6H4W2)
Hello,
I would like to completely remove Brave Browser and cache from desktop. My plan is to completely remove Brave and do a clean install. I can uninstall using software manager, but when I reinstall all of my previous settings, bookmarks, etc., still exist.
I've tried to remove via terminal with no success.
sudo apt autoremove brave-browser
[sudo] password for ejism:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package brave-browser
Brave browser currently installed but not listed in .bin. Firefox is there. No Brave.
Are Brave files listed under another name?
Where is the cache stored?
Any advice?
thanks
