How uninstall VirtualBox installed via *.run file?

Post by MoonKid2 »

How can I uninstall VirtualBox (on Linux) when it was installed via a run-file?

I need to uninstall the 6.1.34 before installing the current testing version.

Inside the install directory (usually /opt/VirtualBox) there's an "uninstall" script. It leaves behind an extension-related subdir but you can manually delete that.
