I use Linux Mint which uses the same repository as Ubuntu. Recently I've installed a software from a .deb file. But, I want to uninstall it now. I know that typing the following command in terminal will do the work,

sudo apt remove </path/to/file_v3.31.deb>

But, after updating the software this method isn't working. So, I searched in the internet, I found this:

How to uninstall a .deb package? -- Askubuntu

Someone answered that

The command to facilitate that is:

sudo dpkg -r package_name

Also if you need to remove them forcefully

sudo dpkg -r --force-all pkg_name

But, how do I get this package name?
