[SOLVED] Unable to uninstall anaconda from Ubuntu 16.04

Issue

I am trying to uninstall Ananconda from my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS machine.

I ran the following commands

conda install anaconda-clean
anaconda-clean
rm -rf ~/anaconda

Everything is getting exceuted without any error/warning. If fact, when I run anaconda-clean it is saying so and so packages have been uninstalled. However, I can still open up anaconda navigator and everything seems to be working just fine. What am I missing?


Solution

conda install anaconda-clean
anaconda-clean --yes
rm -rf ~/anaconda3 

Replace anaconda3 with your version of anaconda

This will uninstall anaconda
