If you need to remove your current installation and start fresh, follow the steps below.

Check installed packages

Run this command to see the name of the package you want to remove:

dpkg --list

Remove the package

Replace <package_name> with the actual package name:

sudo apt-get remove <package_name>

Purge related files

This will remove configuration and extra files tied to the package:

sudo apt-get purge <package_name>

Clean up

Make sure everything is cleared out:

sudo apt-get clean

One-line alternative

You can also do it in one command:

sudo apt-get --purge remove <package_name>

Reinstalling

Once the old version is removed, follow our installation guides to install a fresh copy of Mysterium’s software.
