| 1447276 | 2018-03-12 06:25:00 | There is an app/program on Mint by the name of 'Eqonomize' which is an accounting app which uses KDE & had to be installed & run in a Terminal. I want to uninstall it but the Terminal does not recognise 'uninstall' or 'remove' as commands. sudo uninstall eqonomize What should I enter to uninstall the app? |

To use the terminal and to get help with most commands (except you need to know the commands to use) you can do <command> --help or man <command>, e.g apt --help, man apt A site to learn general terminal commands and navigating linux is linuxjourney.com |
