IMPORTANT: Snap Store can be easily installed back. But I DON’T know how to make it Ubuntu Software again!!! If you know, tell me how.
Snap Store itself is a Snap application, you can remove it by running command in terminal:
snap remove snap-store
Run command to edit the .desktop file of Gnome Software:
sudo -H gedit /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Software.desktop
When file opens, do:
- Change value of Name to
Ubuntu Software. - Change the value of Icon to
ubuntusoftware(no space between the 2 words)
Save the file and Ubuntu Software is now Gnome Software.
