[Debian] Delete EVERYTHING of Dolphin-emu

[canfi]

Hey guys,

I recently f*cked up in the configuration somewhere on my debian ( deepin distro) laptop, fire emblem - path of radiance not running anymore, cant get past the hertz selection, getting a blackscreen after it.

I tried "sudo apt-get --purge remove dolphin-emu" and reinstalling it several times but the settings + saves etc stayed, f.e. my keybindings. is there a way to remove all of dolphin without any leftovers? Like it has never been there. So i can get a fresh install of it and have it work again?


Pre-Thanks for all replies

Probably the best solution would be to just remove the config files: rm -rf ~/.dolphin-emu/Config ~/.config/dolphin-emu/

Assumes you haven't set XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_CONFIG_HOME and/or XDG_CACHE_HOME (unlikely) or there is't an portable.txt in the executable directory. It seems ~/.dolphin-emu is an old path, so don't worry if it's missing.

Anyway, to remove everything related to dolphin: rm -rf ~/.dolphin-emu ~/.config/dolphin-emu ~/.cache/dolphin-emu ~/.local/share/dolphin-emu

Thanks for the clear explanation, I'll try asap and report back then

dpkg -l | grep '^.i'
| grep -i dolphin

Thats what i also used to remove every leftover of the Programm, then I deleted all games and started fresh, now it worked on the first launch after a short launching time and i can now launch it anytime without problems.
