How to completely uninstall and re-install Node.js and npm in Mac OS
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to uninstall and re-install node and npm in mac os using terminal and nvm (node version manager).
Uninstalling Node and Npm
To completely uninstall node and npm follow the below steps.
Open your terminal.
Now, run the below command by hitting the enter key.
- At final run the following commands, to delete any node or node_modules inside the bin directory.
- Verify if the node is completely uninstalled or not using node -v command.
If the output shows command not found then you are successfully uninstalled.
Installing node and npm using nvm
We are using the node version manager (nvm) to download and install the latest version of node.js (with npm included).
- Run the following command in your terminal to install the nvm.
- If your using bash or zsh, you need to add the following code to
To open bashrc file in vscode use code
To open zshrc file in vscode use code
- Verify the nvm installation by running the below command.
If the output shows a version number then you are successfully installed.
- Now, run the following command to download and install the latest version of node.
If you want to install a long term support (LTS) version use this command.

How to Uninstall Node.js from Mac OSX
If you read one of my earlier posts on how to install Node.js, you probably noticed there are quite a few ways to install it on your computer. This could be from a package manager, from the source code, or from a pre-compiled binary distribution. So, what do you do when you want to uninstall Node.js?
Here I’ll be describing a few ways you can uninstall it from your Mac OSX computer. Just keep in mind that these commands will remove the Node executable, and not necessarily all of the Node projects or NPM cache.
Manually
If you installed Node either by source or from a binary distribution then you’ll likely have to delete the executable and other resources manually. Unfortunately, this isn’t easy since there are quite a few directories containing Node resources, like npm and node_modules .
To completely uninstall the node executable as well as npm , here are some instructions on what to do:
Note that not all of the directories listed here may exist on your system depending on your install method.
- Delete node and/or node_modules from /usr/local/lib
- Delete node and/or node_modules from /usr/local/include
- Delete node , node-debug , and node-gyp from /usr/local/bin
- Delete .npmrc from your home directory (these are your npm settings, don’t delete this if you plan on re-installing Node right away)
- Delete .npm from your home directory
- Delete .node-gyp from your home directory
- Delete .node_repl_history from your home directory
- Delete node* from /usr/local/share/man/man1/
- Delete npm* from /usr/local/share/man/man1/
- Delete node.d from /usr/local/lib/dtrace/
- Delete node from /opt/local/bin/
- Delete node from /opt/local/include/
- Delete node_modules from /opt/local/lib/
- Delete node from /usr/local/share/doc/
- Delete node.stp from /usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/
This list should include just about all the references to Node on your system. Keep in mind there may be more. Please let me know if you find any others (and how you installed Node originally)!
Homebrew
The Homebrew method is arguably one of the easiest ways to get Node on and off your system. The command to remove it is just as simple as the command to install it. Assuming you used brew install node to install it, just execute this to get rid of it:
And that’s it! All traces of the executable will be gone from your system.
The Node Version Manager (NVM) is almost as convenient as Homebrew, but in a different way. It allows you to install multiple versions of Node on your system so you can easily switch from one to the other.
Eventually, you’ll probably want to get rid of one of the versions when you’re done with it. And like Homebrew, you can easily do this using a command similar to the way you installed it:
And a complete example of this might be something like:

Check out our hands-on, practical guide to learning Git, with best-practices, industry-accepted standards, and included cheat sheet. Stop Googling Git commands and actually learn it!
And now only version v0.12.2 of Node will be uninstalled. Keep in mind that if you had multiple versions installed, then Node will still be on your system, but not v0.12.2 (using the example above).
Phantom Installs
If for some reason none of the above methods worked for you, then you can always hunt down the executable using the command line tool which . This command shows you the location of the file for a given command.
We can use this to find where Node is installed on your system. You can try this with:
You can see in the output that my node command is linked to an NVM version, although yours may be located somewhere else. Now I can use this info to uninstall it.
Using this tool should help you find out how the executable was installed or how to remove it manually.

Как удалить NodeJS, установленный из pkg (Mac OS X)?
Я установил NodeJS из файла pkg на моем Mac. Теперь мне нужно удалить его. Скажите, пожалуйста, как это сделать. Я попытался удалить файлы из этого списка:
но узел все еще на моем компьютере.

обновление Кажется, квитанции .bom имя файла может быть изменено, поэтому вам может потребоваться заменить org.nodejs.pkg.bom С org.nodejs.node.pkg.bom в выше. Суть была обновлена соответствующим образом.
Если вы установили узел из их сайт, попробуйте это:
после предыдущих сообщений, вот полный список, который я использовал
для удаления «родного» узла.установка js, я использовал метод, предложенный в предыдущих ответах sudo npm uninstall npm -g дополнительные sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules /var/db/receipts/org.nodejs.* .
но мне также пришлось удалить следующие два каталога:
только после этого я смог установить узел.js с Homebrew.
Это полный список команд, которые я использовал (спасибо плакатов выше):
используйте npm для удаления. Просто бегу sudo npm uninstall npm -g удаляет все файлы. Чтобы избавиться от посторонних вещей, таких как bash pathnames, запустите это (из ответа nicerobot):
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node \ /usr/local/lib/node_modules \ /var/db/receipts/org.nodejs.*
Я взял список Арба, добавив еще три файла. Вот полный список, который я использовал:
небольшой удобный скрипт, расширяющийся на предыдущие ответы.
сохраните его в файл и запустите с:
мне пришлось удалить следующие файлы, так как brew пожаловался в install позже после ручного удаления всех файлов.
а затем сделайте следующее
следующее работало после проб и ошибок, и эти каталоги не были доступны для записи, поэтому я удалил их и, наконец, смог заменить node & npm.

| the best way (I’ve found) to completely uninstall node + npm is to do the following: |
| go to /usr/local/lib and delete any node and node_modules |
| go to /usr/local/include and delete any node and node_modules directory |
| if you installed with brew install node, then run brew uninstall node in your terminal |
| check your Home directory for any local or lib or include folders, and delete any node or node_modules from there |
| go to /usr/local/bin and delete any node executable |
| You may need to do the additional instructions as well: |
| sudo rm /usr/local/bin/npm |
| sudo rm /usr/local/share/man/man1/node.1 |
| sudo rm /usr/local/lib/dtrace/node.d |
| sudo rm -rf |

Unfortunately homebrew has a habit of corrupting Node installations on OSX.

I’m 80% confident I’ve buggered nodejs on my new MacBook by trying to install via homebrew, which is how I found this gist. Lessons learned.
