1  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How to delete Electrum (Linux - noob) on: January 22, 2018, 03:44:16 AM
Hello biddicoin,
This exact question drove me NUTTSSSS!
Here's how to remove the new Electrum 3.0.3 from Linux Mint:

sudo pip3 uninstall electrum

You will still have to manually delete the hidden folder. Press CTRL  and H to reveal .electrum in your home folder.


Hello,

Your answer worked for me, but I've read that Electrum dependencies should also be removed. Do you know if it is python3-pyqt5 the package I should get rid of?

Thanks.

What should users do?
---------------------

All users should upgrade their Electrum software, and stop using old
versions.

Users who did not protect their wallet with a password should create a
new wallet, and move their funds to that wallet. Even if it never
received any funds, a wallet without password should not be used
anymore, because its seed might have been compromised.

In addition, users should review their settings, and delete all
contacts from their contacts list, because the Bitcoin addresses of
their contacts might have been modified.



Hi,

I'm having problems to uninstall my 3.0.3 version of Electrum in Ubuntu, so would installing the newer version upgrade the wallet software? Or would I have both versions in my computer at the same time?
Thanks.
