Ubuntu – I just can’t uninstall genymotion from Ubuntu 16.04

genymotionvirtualbox

I installed Genymotion in my Ubuntu 16.04

But now I want to uninstall it.

I tried executing

./genymotion-2.7.2-linux_x64.bin --uninstall

But that returned

bash: ./genymotion-2.7.2-linux_x64.bin: Permission denied

How can I uninstall genymotion from my Ubuntu 16.04?

Sounds like you're only missing sudo Try:

sudo ./genymotion-2.7.2-linux_x64.bin --uninstall

Or if that didn't work, try with sh like this:

sudo sh ./genymotion-2.7.2-linux_x64.bin --uninstall

Try this:

Go to your VirtualBox VM settings Shared folder tab (open VirtualBox > select the Android/Genymotion virtual machine > Settings > Shared folders)
Add a shared folder with the folder you want to share, and check the auto mount and permanent options
Start your VM as usual from the Genymotion software
Your shared folder is available in the /mnt/shared directory (multiple shared folders are supported)

It may be a problem of your Linux OS and Genymotion compatibility, genymotion 2.7.2 is not compatible with Ubuntu 14.04.

Even after you installed the bin file, if genymotion still can't work normally, you have to add a PPA.

Open terminal and type this:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.9 g++-4.9
