snap remove says vscode is not installed

Question

i want do remove vscode (because vscode will not start. no error message).

i found it in snap list, but it will not remove:

$ snap list | grep code
code                     8795a988         20    stable    vscode*           classic
$ snap remove vscode
snap "vscode" is not installed
$ snap remove vscode*
snap "vscode*" is not installed

i read the tutorial here: https://www.howtogeek.com/252047/how-to-install-and-manage-snap-packages-on-ubuntu-16.04-lts/

i got vscode from here: https://code.visualstudio.com/#alt-downloads

Answer 1

Easy fix.

I'm 99% sure that snap lists Visual Studio Code as just code. Try using

snap remove code

Hope this works for you!

Answer 2

It's Not VSCode in snap. It's just 'code' So, the command is -

sudo snap remove code

Answer 3

"snap remove code" works perfectly. I used it once.
