如何卸载Golang？

I tried the answer here Removed golang but go command still works?, but it didn't work (I can still run go)

Currently, when I run which go I see this output

/usr/local/go/bin/go

I think I had two installations of go as my GOPATH was pointing to another folder named gocode. I've now removed that folder, and the usr/local/go/bin/go folder.

I've also removed my GOPATH. However, I can still run go.

How do I uninstall golang?

You might try

rm -rvf /usr/local/go/

then remove any mention of go in e.g. your ~/.bashrc; then you need at least to logout and login.

However, be careful when doing that. You might break your system badly if something is wrong.

^{PS. I am assuming a Linux or POSIX system.}

1- Go to the directory $ cd /usr/local

2- Remove it with super user privileges $ sudo rm -rf go

only tab
rm -rvf /usr/local/go/
not works well, but
sudo rm -rvf /usr/local/go/
do.

I'm using Ubuntu. I spent a whole morning fixing this, tried all different solutions, when I type go version, it's still there, really annoying... Finally this worked for me, hope this will help!

sudo apt-get remove golang-go
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove golang-go

For Windows 10:

1. Go to Apps in the Settings App.
2. Look for Go Programming Language * in the list and uninstall it.
3. Remove C:\Go\bin from your PATH environment variable (only if you don't plan on installing another version of golang)

On linux we can do like this to remove go completely:

rm -rf "/usr/local/.go/"
rm -rf "/usr/local/go/"

These two command remove go and hidden .go files. Now we also have to update entries in shell profile.

Open your basic file. Mostly I open like this sudo gedit ~/.bashrc and remove all go mentions.

You can also do by sed command in ubuntu

sed -i '/# GoLang/d' .bashrc
sed -i '/export GOROOT/d' .bashrc
sed -i '/:$GOROOT/d' .bashrc
sed -i '/export GOPATH/d' .bashrc
sed -i '/:$GOPATH/d' .bashrc

It will remove Golang from everywhere. Also run this after running these command

source ~/.bash_profile

Tested on linux 18.04 also. That's All.

sudo apt-get remove golang-go
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove golang-go

This is perfect for Ubuntu 18.18

On a Mac-OS system

1. If you have used an installer, you can uninstall golang by using the same installer.
2. If you have installed from source

   rm -rf /usr/local/go
   rm -rf $(echo $GOPATH)
   

Then, remove all entries related to go i.e. GOROOT, GOPATH from ~/.bash_profile and run

source ~/.bash_profile

On a Linux system

rm -rf /usr/local/go
rm -rf $(echo $GOPATH)

Then, remove all entries related to go i.e. GOROOT, GOPATH from ~/.bashrc and run

source ~/.bashrc

Use this command to uninstall Golang for Ubuntu.

This will remove just the golang-go package itself.

sudo apt-get remove golang-go

Uninstall golang-go and its dependencies:

sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove golang-go

From the official install page -

To remove an existing Go installation from your system delete the go directory. This is usually /usr/local/go under Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD or c:\Go under Windows.

You should also remove the Go bin directory from your PATH environment variable. Under Linux and FreeBSD you should edit /etc/profile or $HOME/.profile. If you installed Go with the macOS package then you should remove the /etc/paths.d/go file. Windows users should read the section about setting environment variables under Windows.

Update August 2019

Found the official uninstall docs worked as expected (on Mac OSX).

$ which go
/usr/local/go/bin/go

In summary, to uninstall:

$ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
$ sudo rm /etc/paths.d/go

Then, did a fresh install with homebrew using brew install go. Now, i have:

 $ which go
/usr/local/bin/go
