I've uninstalled eXists-db (through the uninstall.jar file) and the system tray icon keeps appearing when switching work spaces. How can I purge any remains of the program?

To get rid of the remnants look in two places:

  1. /usr/share/applications and

  2. /home/$USER/.local/share/applications

Look for the .desktop file for that program and simply delete them. After that re-start your system.

  • The second option worked, there were eXists files still there. Thanks! –  May 24 '17 at 00:38

  • After uninstall version 3.4.1 and installing version 3.3.0 it seems that the service of the "old" version still exists, because the server couldn't be started. How can I check if the service is uninstalled too? – zypro Oct 23 '17 at 09:58
