<h2 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h2>
<p>So sad to see you go.</p>
<pre><code>sudo npm uninstall npm -g</code></pre>
<p>Or, if that fails, get the npm source code, and do:</p>
<pre><code>sudo make uninstall</code></pre>
<h2 id="More-Severe-Uninstalling">More Severe Uninstalling</h2>
<p>Usually, the above instructions are sufficient. That will remove
npm, but leave behind anything you've installed.</p>
<p>If that doesn't work, or if you require more drastic measures,
continue reading.</p>
<p>Note that this is only necessary for globally-installed packages. Local
installs are completely contained within a project's <code>node_modules</code>
folder. Delete that folder, and everything is gone (unless a package's
install script is particularly ill-behaved).</p>
<p>This assumes that you installed node and npm in the default place. If
you configured node with a different <code>--prefix</code>, or installed npm with a
different prefix setting, then adjust the paths accordingly, replacing
<code>/usr/local</code> with your install prefix.</p>
<p>To remove everything npm-related manually:</p>
<pre><code>rm -rf /usr/local/{lib/node{,/.npm,_modules},bin,share/man}/npm*</code></pre>
<p>If you installed things <em>with</em> npm, then your best bet is to uninstall
them with npm first, and then install them again once you have a
proper install. This can help find any symlinks that are lying
around:</p>
<pre><code>ls -laF /usr/local/{lib/node{,/.npm},bin,share/man} | grep npm</code></pre>
<p>Prior to version 0.3, npm used shim files for executables and node
modules. To track those down, you can do the following:</p>
<pre><code>find /usr/local/{lib/node,bin} -exec grep -l npm \{\} \; ;</code></pre>
<p>(This is also in the <a href="../doc/README.html">README</a> file.)</p>
