I moved to the latest Ubuntu LTS release a few days back and am facing some issues with the command line. Can anyone assist me in uninstalling an app via the command line? Also, the Ubuntu Software Store isn’t opening properly—every time I try to open it, it crashes. Any tips on fixing that?

To remove a program: run sudo apt-get purge NAME-OF-PROGRAM. To clean up dependencies, use sudo apt-get autoremove. If the store isn't working, share more details about the error message. For instance, you could try updating with sudo apt-get update or upgrading gnome-software with sudo apt-get upgrade. Those steps might resolve some problems. If not, look for logs that explain what's happening.

They probably set up a widely used graphical app through the Software Centre, since Canonical usually encourages Snap over APT. For Snap, you should run `sudo snap remove [package]`

The app store begins loading on the side, but it doesn’t open afterward.
