Or, if that fails, get the npm source code, and do:

Usually, the above instructions are sufficient\. That will remove
|
||
|
|
npm, but leave behind anything you\'ve installed\.
|
||
|
|
.

|
|
.P
|

If that doesn\'t work, or if you require more drastic measures,

continue reading\.

Note that this is only necessary for globally\-installed packages\. Local
|
||
|
|
installs are completely contained within a project\'s \fBnode_modules\fR
|
||
|
|
folder\. Delete that folder, and everything is gone (unless a package\'s
|
||
|
|
install script is particularly ill\-behaved)\.

This assumes that you installed node and npm in the default place\. If
|
||
|
|
you configured node with a different \fB\-\-prefix\fR, or installed npm with a
|
||
|
|
different prefix setting, then adjust the paths accordingly, replacing \fB/usr/local\fR with your install prefix\.

If you installed things \fIwith\fR 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:

Prior to version 0\.3, npm used shim files for executables and node
|
||
|
|
modules\. To track those down, you can do the following:
