Uninstalled app still showing icon?

5,731

Try first with sudo apt-get autoremove. This will remove the unnecessary dependencies.

Then in /usr/share/applications just delete the corresponding .desktop file for the uninstalled application. If you still see the icon on the launcher, just right click it and press unlock from launcher.
