Asked By TechyExplorer29 On

I recently installed Xubuntu on my old Chromebook and decided to switch to a lighter browser. Now, I want to uninstall Firefox and make sure that all of its data is removed. I'm using Ubuntu 25.10 on an Acer CB3-131. Does anyone know how to do this properly?

Another option is using `sudo apt remove firefox`. If you want to ensure everything, run `sudo apt purge firefox` after that to get rid of config files and user cache too. Just keep in mind that if you still see Firefox in your start menu, you might want to check for any leftover files or installations.

I already tried the `apt remove` command, but Firefox is still showing up on my system and I can still run it. Is there anything else I might be missing?

To uninstall Firefox, try using the command `sudo snap remove firefox`. This should remove the snap version of Firefox from your system.
