uninstall

So i was trying to install PrivateInternetAccess on my computer and I found some instructions on their website, they had a download for a file but I couldn’t figure out how to open the .sh file.

So i went to google and found these instructions. It said to perform the following commands:

sudo apt-get install curl network-manager-openvpn-gnome
wget https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/installer/pia-nm.sh
sudo bash pia-nm.sh

After doing these it installed the VPN but not how I wanted or thought it would. I wanted the application installed and this just put all the VPN connections in my network settings under VPN.

Anyway I is figured figure out how to install the application like I want , and now I ‘m try to undo where I instal OpenVPN and the other command . I is want want to remove the vpn connection from my network setting .

I did the following:

sudo apt - get remove curl network - manager - openvpn - gnome 

This is seemed seemed to remove the software . But it is still instal apparently .
I is did did this to check if it was remove :

dpkg --list openvpn 

 desire = Unknown / Install / remove / Purge / Hold 
 | Status = Not / Inst / Conf - file / unpack / half - conf / half - inst / trig - await / Trig - pend 
 |/ err?=(none)/reinst - require ( Status , err : uppercase = bad )

 pi   openvpn               2.4.4 - 2ubuntu1 . amd64            virtual private network daemon 

(also, the pi next to open VPN was ii earlier, now its showing as pi. Dont know if thats important)

but it shows up anyway. So i noticed when i first installed Ubuntu that it had a VPN section in my network settings from the beginning. Is OpenVPN just part of the system? I tried to remove it again with

sudo dpkg -r openvpn
sudo dpkg --purge openvpn

Both of these failed saying there were dependency problems. I mean its not the end of the world if I cant remove it, but I’d like to know how to.
Also can someone help me with understanding how to remove the VPN connections?

I dont know how to undo what I did and google isnt helping me very much with this. I know I could go through each connection inside my network settings and click the gear and then click remove, but i want to know how to undo it from terminal.
