Stupid question, I know, but I just can't figure out how to remove VSCode from my Ubuntu 20.04.
I don't remember how I downloaded and installed it, and history
doesn't go that far back.
I know it's installed, because if I press the super key and enter "vscode", it shows up:
However,
$ sudo apt remove vscode
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package vscode
Hm. Maybe I downloaded it as a .deb
and installed it with dpkg
? However, dpkg --list
gives me
ii vnstat
ii wamerican
with nothing in between, so no vscode entry. I've also tried with the Ubuntu Software Center, but that only gives me the option to install it, so it obviously doesn't know it's already installed.
So I'm at an impasse. How do I remove this thing?
