I installed Python Anaconda on Mac (OS Mavericks). I wanted to revert to the default version of Python on my Mac. What's the best way to do this? Should I delete the ~/anaconda
directory? Any other changes required?
Currently when I run which python
I get this path:
/Users/username/anaconda/bin/python
From the docs:
To uninstall Anaconda open a terminal window and remove the entire anaconda install directory:
rm -rf ~/anaconda
. You may also edit~/.bash_profile
and remove the anaconda directory from yourPATH
environment variable, and remove the hidden.condarc
file and.conda
and.continuum
directories which may have been created in the home directory withrm -rf ~/.condarc ~/.conda ~/.continuum
.
Further notes:
~/anaconda3
dir instead of ~/anaconda
.~/.anaconda
hidden directory that may be removed.PATH
is modified in one of your runcom files, and not in your shell profile. So, for example if you are using bash, be sure to check your ~/.bashrc
if you don't find the PATH
modified in ~/.bash_profile
.
