Can't uninstall Gnome Shell Extension
Since the remove buttons are no longer available in gnome-shell 3.26, the only way I know is deleting the extension directory itself.
With Nautilus
- Open Nautilus and show hidden files (press CTRL + H).
- Go to your home folder.
- Navigate to
.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
- Delete the directory of the unwanted extension.
- Reload gnome-shell. Press ALT + F2, type
r
and press ENTER.
The macho way
- Open the console.
- Go to the extensions directory:
cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
- List the extensions and get the name of the unwanted extension:
ls -l
- Delete the extension directory:
rm -r extension@author
- Reload gnome-shell. Press ALT + F2, type
r
and press ENTER.
There are two folders for gnome-shell extensions:
~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions
for user-side/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions
for system-side
- Launch
gnome-tweak-tool
- Search "Extensions" in right menù
- Select the extension and click on "Remove"
