Can't uninstall "GNOME Shell integration" extension after uninstalling GNOME
I installed GNOME into my Ubuntu 16.04 installation for a short amount of time. After uninstalling it (with sudo apt remove gnome-shell ubuntu-gnome-desktop
), I still have the "GNOME Shell integration" extension installed into Google Chrome. Unfortunately, I can't remove the extension, because it was installed "administratively":
How may I get rid of this tumor?
sudo apt-get purge chrome-gnome-shell
Should get rid of it on Ubuntu without restarting
Figured it out.
From https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShellIntegrationForChrome/Installation#Troubleshooting:
sudo rm /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/chrome-gnome-shell.json
sudo rm /etc/chromium/policies/managed/chrome-gnome-shell.json
I also had to these steps:
- Go to chrome://version/ and copy the profile path
- Navigate to the profile path and navigate to the Extensions folder
- Remove the folder named "gphhapmejobijbbhgpjhcjognlahblep"
- Restart Chrome
