Uncaught exception - even after reinstallation

[SprickW]

With the client I can't get rid of former use of vorta/borg. Even after complete de- and re-installation (apt) the GUI shows formerly used profile names. Trying to define a new profile are add an existing repository to an existing profile leads to exceptions.

Fixing might cause time. So it would be of help to have some documentation to completely remove borg/vorta to allow a clean setup.

Uncaught exception, please file a report with this text at

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Your settings DB may still be around. You can find it in ~/.config/Vorta/settings.db or similar on Linux.

That was my first idea also. But there is no ~/.config/Vorta directory - which is a bit strange.

Strange? No, why should it be.
AFAIK it depends also on the install method and location and from the look of it you installed Vorta like myself with PIP. Try to look in ~/.local/share/Vorta/, thats my cfg location.

I think you could try to remove/backup your cfg, restart Vorta so it makes a new cfg and re-add your repos. The old cfg could be somehow broken.
