how do I uninstall Dropbox

Question

After booting up a popup screen tells me Dropbox did not install correctly but it is lurking somewhere. To install properly I first have to delete the incorrect install. I'm using latest Ubuntu.

Answer 1

Try this command in a terminal:

sudo apt-get remove --purge nautilus-dropbox

Answer 2

This is from Dropbox help page:

$ sudo apt-get remove dropbox; rm -rvf ~/.dropbox ~/.dropbox-dist
$ rm -rv ~/Dropbox
