For Linux:

The uninstallation process for Linux can vary depending on how you installed the Tor Browser. If you downloaded and extracted it manually, you can simply delete the Tor Browser folder. If you used a package manager or another installation method, you might need to use a command to uninstall it. For example, if you used a package manager like `apt`, you can uninstall it by opening a terminal and typing:

sudo apt-get remove torbrowser-launcher

Or if you installed it through another method, simply find the folder where the Tor Browser is located and delete it. This is because the Tor Browser on Linux is often run from a self-contained directory and doesn’t integrate into the system’s package management in the same way that other software might.
