I've looked over dozens of similar questions, nothing has jumped out as applicable. ls returns "arduino-1.8.3" {lower case} ron@ron:~$ cd (or sudo cd) /arduino-1.8.3 returns No Such File or Directory"

In the directory is uninstall.sh but it won't run from the file manager.

I realize I'm probably missing something obvious to an experienced user which I'm not.

TIA

  • Thank you. While I still need to learn why I can't get into the directory, you did provide the answer to the immediate problem that I hadn't thought through.. – Ron Jul 23 '17 at 18:52
  • If ls shows a directory arduino-1.8.3 in the current directory, then you can enter it using cd arduino-1.8.3 or cd ./arduino-1.8.3 but not cd /arduino-1.8.3 since that means a location in the / directory - not the current one. – steeldriver Jul 23 '17 at 21:36

To uninstall arduino, either...

In terminal...

sudo apt-get purge arduino arduino-core

or

If the arduino folder is in your home folder...

In terminal...

cd ~/arduino-1.8.3 # use the exact folder name here
sudo ./uninstall.sh
