Remove APT repositories disabled after upgrade to 18.04

Question

After upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 there are different APT repositories disabled.

I see this via app "Stacer".

I can't delete this, and I can't find this when I check in folder:

ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d

So I am not sure how to delete.

I found also from google chrome, even if I never installed it.. pretty strange?

Check this:

The other question suggest to remove from Softare center, but in 18.04 I can't find it. And from source.list directory, the disabled APT is not there.

I try to follow other questions, but: – Zoroaster Apr 08 '19 at 15:13 — Zoroaster, Apr 08 '19 at 15:13

Open Software & Update program already installed in Ubuntu.

Use the Dash or Show Applications:

Alternately open Ubuntu Software and then Menu > Software & Update
Alternately open a terminal and enter software-properties-gtk

Go to the tab Other Softeware.

The Repositories that are Uncheked are disabled.

Then either Edit... to enable (Chrome, for example) or Remove (others you don't need).

When you edit:

Some of the disabled repositories may have "xenial" in the text. You will need to replace "xenial" with "bionic" before you enable them so that they point to the right repository version.

Hope this helps

The link I mentioned as duplicate is quite dated - Do you want to take a crack at editing it? – Charles Green Apr 08 '19 at 16:22

Looks good. I probably should have created a chat to suggest this. – Charles Green Apr 08 '19 at 17:14
Thank You! One question... If I delete before rename "xenial" to "bionic", how to re-add this? (Yes I did that :( – Zoroaster Apr 08 '19 at 18:25
Ask a new question. It depends on which entries you deleted and if you really need them in bionic. – user68186 Apr 08 '19 at 20:31
