A user encountered a Liquid error after uninstalling the SEO Booster app from their Shopify store using the Simple Theme. The error message indicates a missing snippet file: SEO-with-JSON-LD-Article-Collection.liquid.
Proposed Solutions:
Quick workaround: Create a blank snippet file with the exact name SEO-with-JSON-LD-Article-Collection.liquid in the theme editor to suppress the error, though this leaves unnecessary code in the theme.
Proper fix: Check the theme.liquid file for leftover code references using patterns like include {} or render {} that still call the deleted snippet. Remove these references to fully clean up the theme.
Alternative: Contact the original app developer (SEO Booster) to properly remove all remaining code, as the uninstallation appears incomplete.
The error typically appears on the homepage when accessing live web pages. One responder also promoted their own SEO app as an alternative solution.

If you’re looking for a quick - but messy - fix you can head to your theme editor and make a new snippet called “SEO-with-JSON-LD-Article-Collection.liquid”. Make sure the file is completely blank and save it.
The error will go away but the drawback is you’d have some extra code and that blank snippet in a theme that should really be cleaned up properly.
I would suggest asking the app dev to consider removing the code for you as it sounds like it wasn’t entirely removed.
This error, “Liquid error: Could not find asset snippets/SEO-with-JSON-LD-Article-Collection.liquid”, here means there existed a liquid file named SEO-with-JSON-LD-Article-Collection.liquid before, but it does not exist in your theme content currently. I can feel that you may encounter this error on the top of the homepage when accessing your web pages in live. If so, I suggest you double check in theme.liquid file and check if any left codes remain on your website, with the patterns like “include {}” or “render {}”.
