If you have Pro
- Uninstalling doesn't cancel a yearly subscription. To stop it renewing, cancel it in Paddle's customer portal: the link is in every email from Paddle, or go to paddle.net.
- Moving to another computer? First choose Pro › Remove Pro from this computer in Ambifold's settings: that frees this computer's place. If you forget, you can replace it from the new computer.
- Reinstalling Ambifold on this computer later? Choose Pro › Restore on this computer and enter the licence code from your purchase email when it asks; this doesn't use up another of your licence's computers. After a new installation of Linux, you need the code too, so keep it.
1. Quit Ambifold
Click the tray icon and choose Quit. Ambifold stops a sync that is running safely, then quits.
2. Remove the package
sudo apt purge ambifold
This removes the app and its menu entry, and Ambifold's APT repository and signing key from your software sources.
3. Remove what Ambifold stored in your home folder
The package can't remove what Ambifold keeps in your home folder: its settings and Google sign-in tokens, its logs, sync records and backups, and the entry that starts it at login.
Check the backups first
The backup folder, ~/.local/state/ambifold/backups/, holds the copies of files that syncs deleted or replaced on your computer in the last 30 days. Copy out anything you still need: the commands below delete it.
rm -rf ~/.config/ambifold ~/.local/state/ambifold
rm -f ~/.config/autostart/ambifold.desktop
If other user accounts on the computer used Ambifold, do this in each of them.
4. Remove Ambifold's access to your Google account
Open Third-party apps and services in your Google Account, find the app (it has the name you gave your Google client, usually Ambifold) and remove its access. Do this for each Google account you connected.
5. Delete your Google Cloud project (optional)
Ambifold signed in through a client in a Google Cloud project that you created. If you don't use that project for anything else, open the project settings in the Google Cloud console, select the project and choose Shut down. Google deletes it after 30 days.
