@Eli,

To completely remove everything related to that installation, you can use:

sudo apt purge --auto-remove openvpn dialog python3-pip python3-setuptools

If you also want to clean up any remaining package caches, you can run:

sudo apt clean
sudo apt autoremove

There are many people who use non-systemd distros such as Slackware or Gentoo. They may be able to install ProtonVPN but since their distros do not use “sysctl“, they will not be able to configure ProtonVPN.

“If you get an error, head back and set up ProtonVPN again as provided in Step 3.”
There is no Step 3. The setup steps are not numbered.
