So Patrick I’ve got a question for you. So in this thread The --oracle-repo command line option failed - #6 by Patrick you said “New version uploaded just now. Please delete the old version. Download the new one.”
So in Ubuntu there’s a search bar in apps but it searches your entire computer, so I typed in “whonix” and I noticed there were some whonix related files in the Home folder, I took a screenshot
So the red arrows point to the whonix related files that still remained after following the instructions here Uninstall Whonix so it seems that when you go into VirtualBox and delete the Whonix VMs, it seems it doesn’t delete everything, and if you recall I said I wanted to completely uninstall both VirtualBox and Whonix as if they were never installed on my PC to begin with.
My question is, would these remaining files have interfered with my Whonix re-install? I feared that they might so I sent them to Trash before I re-installed Whonix, I just didn’t wanna take any chances but hey you’re the expert here so maybe you can tell me?
Edit: Some additional info, the folder titled VirtualBox VMs
was indeed empty, just in case you were wondering.
Edit: The folder titled dist-installer-cli-download
was not empty, this was what was inside it
And so yeah, how come these files weren’t deleted? I was afraid it might mess with the re-install so out of an abundance of caution I deleted them. Would they have messed with the re-installation of Whonix?
