I typed sudo apt update to update all my programs on my computer and I get this error:
E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/nilarimogard/webupd8/ubuntu jammy Release' does not have a Release file.
How do I fix it please?

1Before adding PPAs you should assure they support your Ubuntu release. The one mentioned in the error doesn't. – ChanganAuto Dec 14 '22 at 09:35

Yeah, it seems the [PPA was abandoned](https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/ubuntu/webupd8) with Ubuntu version 21.04. – Artur Meinild Dec 14 '22 at 09:36

Thanks @Nmath, I tried typing `sudo ppa-purge https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/nilarimogard/webupd8/ubuntu jammy Release` from the highlighted answer but the computer says `sudo: ppa-purge: command not found` – Richard Dec 14 '22 at 09:38

Thank you @ChanganAuto, I don't know how to do that though – Richard Dec 14 '22 at 09:39

That error means that the ppa does not support your ubuntu release.
Look at the supported releases :
https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/nilarimogard/webupd8/ubuntu/dists
So remove that ppa to solve the issue.
Here a guide :
https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/12/how-to-remove-ppa-ubuntu
use the gui method, is more simple for a beginner.
Or you can do it with :
sudo apt install ppa-purge && sudo ppa-purge ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
