Delete version on quest?

I keep getting the "cannot downgrade error" when trying to install and try out developer builds.  This happens even when I increment the store build before packaging.  Isn't there any way I can just delete the stupid old version entirely?  Uninstall does not seem to do it.  What is it witth Quest, where you can't actually remove apps?  What happens when you run out of space?

I've never seen that error...but when I have a build I can't delete, I use this app from Headjack.io called vrsildeloader.  It's free, but you have to give them your email address in order to get a link to the download.  I've never received any spam, so I've no complaints.

I have the same issue. I tried the app but that didn't work either.

Okay, I re-installed it through the store interface and then uninstalled it again. That got rid of it. Although the link to install remains in the store.

Spoke too soon. Now I can't re-install.
