Uninstalling the Universal Package

Dr.Web for Linux that was installed from the universal package can be uninstalled either from the application menu of the desktop environment or from the command line.

The uninstaller uninstalls not only Dr.Web for Linux, but also all other Dr.Web products installed on your computer.

 

If any other Dr.Web products, besides Dr.Web for Linux, are installed on your computer, follow a custom component installation and uninstallation procedure to uninstall Dr.Web for Linux only instead of starting the uninstaller.

 

Uninstalling Dr.Web for Linux From the Application Menu

On the application menu, click the Dr.Web group and then Remove Dr.Web components. The uninstaller will be started in graphical mode.

Uninstalling Dr.Web for Linux From the Command Line

The uninstaller starts with the remove.sh script located in the /opt/drweb.com/bin directory. Thus, to uninstall Dr.Web for Linux, run the command:

# /opt/drweb.com/bin/remove.sh

After that, the uninstaller starts either in graphical mode or in command-line mode, depending on the environment.

To run the uninstaller directly from the command line, run the command:

# /opt/drweb.com/bin/uninst.sh

Uninstallation of Dr.Web for Linux is described in the corresponding sections:

Uninstalling the Product in the Graphical Mode,

Uninstalling from the Command Line.

You can also start the installer in silent mode without displaying the user interface (including uninstaller dialogs in command-line mode) by running the command:

# /opt/drweb.com/bin/remove.sh --non-interactive

Root privileges are required to run the uninstaller in silent mode. To elevate your privileges, use the su and sudo commands.

 

On ALT 8 SP you may see the following messages in the process of uninstalling the universal package:

/etc/init.d/drweb-configd: No such file or directory

These messages do not affect the system functioning. The uninstallation procedure is being performed correctly.
