Hey Mike:

Is that Linux Mint 17.2?
If it is, use Software Manager.
If not, please specify.

Depends on how it was installed.

If you used the software manager to install it, then use the software manager to uninstall it.
If you used dpkg to install it, then use dkpg to uninstall it.
If you built it from source and used "make install", then use "make uninstall".
