I installed Riseup VPN from software and it didn't work, after I uninstalled it the name for the app still shows but the icon is gone. I have tried tried autoremove and purge from terminal but it's still there. I followed the instructions from
"Icon does not disappear from "all applications" after uninstalling DeadBeef"
and the files don't show in /usr/share/applications or .local/share/applications. How can I get rid of this listing?
