Two versions of Brave

[victorxavier]

Hello!

That’s not really an absurd problem, but I encountered a problem that my brave wasn’t able to update so it asked me to install again. I did it but now I have two versions of brave, v1.82.173 and v1.80.124. How I get rid of the older version?

I use debian

Can you tell me how you initially installed the browser (both times)?

Ok, so I found that in the first one I use flatpak and his command is:

/usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=brave --file-forwarding com.brave.Browser @@u %U @@

Ok, I could uninstall it with

1. flatpak list | grep brave

2. flatpak uninstall com.brave.Browser

3. ls ~/.local/share/applications/

4. rm ~/.local/share/applications/com.brave.Browser.desktop just to remove the logo

Basically I didn’t realize that I have used apt to one and flatpak to another.

So that’s why two braves are appearing

Was just coming to reply in this thread and ask you if that was the case – thanks for confirming. Glad everything is up and running as expected!
