I installed Atom. Then I removed it with sudo apt-get remove atom
command. Now when I tried sudo apt-get remove --purge atom
, it shows no apt package atom
, but there is a snap with that name.
How to remove that snap?

The atom package that was installed by sudo apt install atom
has already been removed, which is the reason why you got the following error message:
No apt package "atom", but there is a snap with that name.
Try "snap install atom"
E: Unable to locate package atom
sudo snap remove atom
. And that worked. – ϻisռad Ϙasiϻ Sep 18 '20 at 11:29
