Uninstall Mudbox from a Linux OS

Use either the Graphical User Interface (GUI) or the Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) utility.

It is recommended you uninstall the Mudbox 2020 software product via the GUI as it is faster and safer than using the RPM utility, especially if you have multiple Autodesk products or product versions installed on your system. If you uninstall Mudbox 2020 using the RPM utility, you may inadvertently uninstall licensing and registration information used by other Autodesk products.

You can use the RPM utility to remove the Mudbox 2020 directory from your Linux OS.
