How To Find Android Settings Pls

[trt]

I want to uninstall FB, and reinstall.

It says, Go to your Android's settings and open your application manager, and
Tap Facebook, but cant find it anywhere. Ta Folks.

on what gadget?

[RATTER15]

Depends on the device you are using.

go into google play app, at the top left you should see three lines tap it, then you should see my apps & games tap that, scroll down to the facebook app, tap it uninstall.

Sorry, I am on Win 8, google chrome with laptop.

[RATTER15]

On google chrome? surely you are just accessing the FB website and not actually using an app, in which case nothing to delete as it isn't installed!

Thats what I was told last night Ratters, so I signed out, and in again, but still have a lot of gremlins going on, like, no names of groups I am in, no names of posters etc.

And couldnt find my fb app.

Any ideas would help, thanks,

if you are on a laptop, then you're not using the android app.

have you tried clearing cookies etc?

## have you tried clearing cookies etc? ##

Will I lose a lot of my information MF, and where do I do that pls, not very good with pc, getting old :-(

[mccfluff]

in chrome at the right hand side of the screen there should be 3 vertical ...
click on that and select settings, then scroll to the bottom and select advanced, scroll down to clear browsing data and press the clear button, this will remove all the cookies and clean up the history, that will probably sort it.
if you have remembered passwords and you don't know what you are, then make sure you uncheck the box that says passwords or they will be cleared out as well.

[mccfluff]

*they are* not you :-)

[fender62]

why not install this clean up your pc laptop ? you wont loose anything of value just cookies, old temp files etc, it also has an unistaller app if you wanted to use it.

Let's try and deal with the FaceBook problem - what is happening that you don't like?

[fender62]

hc4361, as mentioned..what exactly is the problem, example have you made fb your start page, are you trying to remove fb bookmark

Depends on your Android version. On most, swipe down from the top, and then tap the cog icon.
But modern versions allow you to uninstall an app directly. Tap and hold the app's icon, then drag to the "uninstall" position that appears at top of screen.

Thanks HC4,
When I go onto FB, there are no group names that I am a member of at the top, or names of the members, of that group, its blank, but on Notifications on the right, have the names.

Its hard to explain when writing, but thats the basics.

Also I am getting confused with different answers, some saying its not a d/load, others saying its an app to cancel, which I cant find.
Am going a bit in a minute.

trt, android is an Operating System usually found on Android phones and tablets and uses apps that are downloaded.

Your Operating System is Windows 8 with Google as the browser. You have not downloaded an app, you have opened the FaceBook website. There is no app to uninstall.

I don't know why FaceBook is playing up in your browser and I can only reiterate mcfluff's suggestion that you try a different browser. There are many to choose from and you can use as many as you like - they don't conflict with each other.

I like Opera

And Firefox

Or you could just use Windows Internet Explorer or Edge, whichever you already have

Thanks Sooooo much mcf & hc4, thats done the trick, yippee
I have now d/loaded Opera, and it seem very good, all gremlins gone :-)

Glad you're sorted :)
