I was installing transmission and got this error on sudo apt-get update but transmission is installed and working

N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

    Does this answer your question? [What can I do if a repository/PPA does not have a Release file?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/866901/what-can-i-do-if-a-repository-ppa-does-not-have-a-release-file). You can not use a ppa which does not have a release file for your version of Ubuntu. Remove the ppa from your system. – mook765 Aug 23 '23 at 18:03
  • This is most likely due to a PPA that does not support your Ubuntu version, and it has nothing to do with transmission. – Archisman Panigrahi Aug 23 '23 at 18:11
  • how to remove this ppa then – Mr. Anonymous Aug 23 '23 at 18:32
  • You've provided no OS/release details so we are limited to being *generic*. You can use a sources tool & disable the PPA; or use a text editor & remove or disable it that way. By adding a "#" at the start of that line, you turn the line into a command and the PPA is *disabled*, which is all the GUI tools do, but which tool depends on your system (*desktop, server, release & details you didn't provide*). How it was added can also influence the best way to remove/disable. Myself I'd just use the text editor `vim` – guiverc Aug 23 '23 at 22:44
