If you installed NitroShare via PPA or by installing one of the binary packages from the website, you can remove it using the following terminal command:
sudo apt-get remove nitroshare
If you built NitroShare from source, you will need to manually remove the files. Here's a list of the files to remove ($PREFIX is usually /usr or /usr/local):
$PREFIX/bin/nitroshare
$PREFIX/share/applications/nitroshare.desktop
$PREFIX/share/icons/gnome/24x24/apps/nitroshare-indicator.png
$PREFIX/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/nitroshare.svg
$PREFIX/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/nitroshare-indicator.svg
$PREFIX/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/apps/22/nitroshare-indicator.png
