Removing appimagelauncher & apps.

Here's how to remove applications installed via AppImageLauncher, and then uninstall AppImageLauncher itself, on Linux Mint:

---

🔹 Step 1: Remove Applications Installed via AppImageLauncher

When you use AppImageLauncher, it typically moves the AppImage files to your ~/Applications directory and adds entries to your application menu.

✅ To remove an AppImage application:

1. Open your file manager and go to:

~/Applications

You can also do:

nemo ~/Applications

2. Delete the AppImage file of the application you want to remove.

3. (Optional) Remove the .desktop entry from your local applications menu:

rm ~/.local/share/applications/<appname>.desktop

If you’re not sure of the file name, you can search:

ls ~/.local/share/applications | grep -i <appname>

🔹 Step 2: Uninstall AppImageLauncher

How you uninstall AppImageLauncher depends on how you installed it:

Option A: If installed via .deb package

If you installed it using a .deb package (like from the AppImageLauncher website):

sudo apt remove appimagelauncher

And then optionally clean up:

sudo apt autoremove

Option B: If installed via a PPA (less common)

If you added a PPA (not typical for Linux Mint users):

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:appimagelauncher-team/stable

sudo apt update

sudo apt remove appimagelauncher

---

🔹 Step 3: Remove Leftover Configuration Files (Optional)

To clean out settings:

rm -r ~/.config/appimagelauncher

Also check for entries in:

~/.local/share/applications
