Complete Removal of Webstorm from Ubuntu

Question

I installed Webstorm and something went wrong so I removed the installation folder and every thing using the advice from here.

A run of whereis turns up nothing, but when I try to install a fresh Webstorm it simply launches the formerly installed one and I don't know where that installation is coming from.

How can I completely remove all traces of Webstorm and install it fresh?

What commands did you run exactly ? There are a bunch of commands at the bottom of the page as well. — Panther, Dec 08 '15 at 01:38
I ran this comprehensive command curl -sL https://gist.github.com/denji/9731967/raw/jetbrains-uninstall.sh | bash -s , after physically removing the .webstorm directory from my home directory. — George Udosen, Dec 08 '15 at 07:26
As IO said, there are a bunch of commands in the comments on that page in addition to the script. — Panther, Dec 08 '15 at 13:40
Can you please cite them or provide a link to them? Please [edit] your question, when you want to add information. It's best to have everything relevant in one place. Also, comments may be deleted for various reasons. — David Foerster, Dec 10 '15 at 12:53
Download it here: https://www.jetbrains.com/ Unpack the WebStorm-11.0.2.tar.gz file using the following command: tar xfz WebStorm-11.0.2.tar.gz Run WebStorm.sh from the bin subdirectory — George Udosen, Dec 10 '15 at 12:59

I had been running the fresh install using sudo rights but this time I ran it without the sudo rights and was able to install it fresh. Here instead of sudo ./webstorm.sh, I used ./webstorm.sh.
