Unix Uninstallation
There are two steps needed to completely uninstall Volta on Unix systems:
- Remove the entire
~/.voltadirectory
rm -rf ~/.volta
- Edit your shell profile scripts to remove the two lines that mention Volta. The profile scripts Volta locates by default are:
.bashrc.bash_profile.zshrc.zshenvconfig.fish.profile
NOTE
You may need to open a new terminal after making this change, as many shells cache the location of recent commands
Windows Uninstallation
On Windows, Volta can be uninstalled by selecting it in the list at Start > Settings > Apps and choosing Uninstall.
