Have you tried https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/additional-tools/uninstall-tool ?

I want to remove the following. I believe removing these would make the uninstall complete and a success

dotnet-core-uninstall and ./dotnet-core-uninstall are not the same thing thats why your commands at the bottom didn't work quite possibly. Try running the tool properly one more time, and if that didnt work nuke that folder

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

which one are you talking about ?

you forgot the ./prefix for running local executables

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

ohh I see I later ran it

Pobiega•2y ago

okay

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

but it didn't help

Pobiega•2y ago

alright you can nuke the dotnet folder then

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

I deleted it

Pobiega•2y ago

👍

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

using sudo rm -rf *

Pobiega•2y ago

yup make sure you remove the actual folder too

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

inside the dotnet directory and now everything is gone

Pobiega•2y ago

so share does not contain a dotnet folder

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago

thanks for responding 🙏 It does but now it is empty

Pobiega•2y ago

well remove the dir too just in case some installer gets upset 🙂

CuriousGuyOP•2y ago
