Uninstalling the Universal Package

Dr.Web for Linux that was installed from the universal package for UNIX systems can be uninstalled either via the application menu of the desktop environment or via the command line.

Note that the uninstallation tool uninstalls not only Dr.Web for Linux, but also all the other Dr.Web products installed on your computer.

If any other Dr.Web products are installed on your computer, besides Dr.Web for Linux, then, to uninstall only Dr.Web for Linux, use the custom components installation and uninstallation procedure, instead of running the automatic uninstallation tool.

Uninstalling the Product via the Application Menu

On the application menu, click the Dr.Web item and select Remove Dr.Web components. The uninstallation tool will be started.

Uninstalling the Product via the Command Line

To uninstall anti-virus, run the remove.sh script, which resides in the /opt/drweb.com/bin directory, using the following command:

# /opt/drweb.com/bin/remove.sh

Then an uninstallation tool will be launched (either in graphical or command-line mode, depending on the environment).

To run the uninstallation tool directly from the command line, use the following command:

# /opt/drweb.com/bin/uninst.sh

Uninstallation of Dr.Web for Linux is described in the corresponding sections:

•Uninstalling the Product in Graphical Mode.

•Uninstalling from the Command Line.

You can also start the uninstallation tool in silent mode by executing the command

# /opt/drweb.com/bin/remove.sh --non-interactive

In this case, the uninstallation tool is run in silent mode and operates without the user interface (including program dialogs for command-line mode). Note that root privileges are required to start the uninstallation tool in silent mode. To elevate the privileges, you can use the su and sudo commands.
