unable to purge Windows App Support

[gsurf1234]

Hi,
newbie here using Zorin 18.1
When trying to install WAS I canceled the download. In the app register, WAS is still on display, but I can´t uninstall/delete/purge the app, because there are no files!
I tried the terminal with "Sudo apt purge Windows App Support", then reinstall instead of purge - and there is always an error "unable to find package Windows, unable to find package App, unable to find package Support". Same if I try to write it as "WindowsAppSupport".
Any ideas how to uninstall/reinstall?
Thx in advance!

unable to find package Support

Try this command:

sudo apt purge zorin-windows-app-support

If it's not working, share output here.
You may need to install it prior removing.

Thx for your fast reply, but it didn´t work; output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package 'zorin-windows-app-support' is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

I can´t install either, since it automatically shows "uninstall"

Install it in terminal with:

sudo apt install zorin-windows-app-support

Then try uninstalling in UI or from terminal with previous command.

Hint: adjust mindset (or whatever is necessary) to distance yourself from all things windows.

Enjoy your Linux !
