Why Can't I Remove This Game?

PureOS
#1

Hello, in PureOS I went to the start menu, then I clicked on the Software briefcase icon, then I went to games, then I downloaded the free version of Tetris.

Then I didn’t want the free version of Tetris. I went through the usual procedure of right click on icons, click “show detail”, click remove… but then it says I can’t remove it because there are “no packages to remove”. Obviously I can still click on the game and play it, so something is there.

How do I remove this?

Thank you.

Sometimes the Software app doesn’t seem to want to remove something that was just installed.

Try this in the terminal: sudo apt remove quadrapassel

That should work :slight_smile:
