Need help deleting an app

[jonfisher]

Need help deleting an emulator app. Didn't install it with synaptic (or Ubuntu software center)

It's called "FS-UAE Launcher"

[ActionParsnip]

What is the output of:

dpkg -l | grep uae

This may give clues

Thread moved to the "Emulators" forum.

Interestingly, this command line does nothing
(?)

OK try

grep -i UAE /usr/share/applications/*

What is the output?

Without knowing how you installed it, use this and return the output back in your reply:

sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove fs-uae-launcher
Architecture: all
Version: 3.0.2+dfsg-2

If that don't work you'll have to point us to the link used to install it..

Great thanks for that, do you have the instructions you followed to install it?
Or check this for me please:

flatpak list

Unfortunately I don't recall how I installed it...
Perhaps I should look in one of the directories to try and figure out exactly where it is? Where are most programs/apps installed at ? I can't find it in usr/bin
