I installed Docker on Ubuntu a while back but when I tried to remove, the Docker still exists in the system. I followed this https://stackoverflow.com/a/31313851/2340159 but did
@miyuru. As suggested by him run all the steps.
Ubuntu version 16.04
Still when I ran docker --version
it was returning a version. So to uninstall it completely
Again run the dpkg -l | grep -i docker
which will list package still there in system.
For example:
ii docker-ce-cli 5:19.03.6~3-0~ubuntu-xenial
amd64 Docker CLI: the open-source application container engine
Now remove them as show below :
sudo apt-get purge -y docker-ce-cli
sudo apt-get autoremove -y --purge docker-ce-cli
sudo apt-get autoclean
Hope this will resolve it, as it did in my case.
