Program Uninstallation

Uninstalling the program is done through the standard Windows uninstall dialog.

When uninstalling, configuration files remain in the folder where the program was installed. Thus, when the program is reinstalled, the settings are preserved. To completely remove the program, including settings, after the automatic uninstallation process the folder where the program was installed must be deleted manually:

• C:\Program Files\VinteoDesktop;
• C:\Users%username%\AppData\Local\vinteo.desktop-updater;
• C:\Users%username%\AppData\Local\Programs\VinteoDesktop;
• C:\Users%username%\AppData\Roaming\VinteoDesktop.

To uninstall the program, open the terminal and copy the full path to the installer file into the command line and run it with the --remove flag:

[/path/to/file/vinteodesktop-1.8.0.run] --remove

1. download the distribution from the download site;
2. for proper installation, the libraries libappindicator3-1, libdbusmenu-glib4, libdbusmenu-gtk3-4, libindicator3-7 must be installed; they can be installed either from the repository or individually; if the libraries listed above are installed separately with the .deb extension, for convenience place the program installer file in the same directory with them and run the command from that directory: sudo dpkg -i *.deb;
3. open the “Fly Terminal” command line and run the command with superuser privileges:

sudo dpkg -i [/path/to/archive/Vinteo.Desktop-1.8.0-amd64.deb]

The drag & drop function can be used by selecting the “Paste Location” option from the context menu and removing the trailing space at the end of the path.

4. close the terminal window.

To uninstall the program, run the dpkg command with superuser privileges using the flags:

sudo dpkg -r Vinteo.Desktop

-r — removes the main program files, while user settings remain.

-P — removes completely including user configuration files.
