How to uninstall Anaconda completely from macOS

To remove the configs:

conda install anaconda-cleananaconda-clean --yes

Once the configs are removed you can delete the anaconda install folder, which is usually under your home dir:

rm -rf ~/anaconda3

Also, the anaconda-clean --yes command creates a backup in your home directory of the format ~/.anaconda_backup/<timestamp>. Make sure to delete that one also.

EDIT (v5.2.0): Now if you want to clean all, you will also have to delete the two last lines added to your .bash_profile. They look like:

# added by Anaconda3 5.2.0 installerexport PATH="/Users/ody/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"

To uninstall Anaconda open a terminal window:

1. Remove the entire anaconda installation directory:

rm -rf ~/anaconda

2. Edit ~/.bash_profile and remove the anaconda directory from your PATH environment variable.

Note: You may need to edit .bashrc and/or .profile files instead of .bash_profile

3. Remove the following hidden files and directories, which may have been created in the home directory:

   • .condarc
   • .conda
   • .continuum

Use:

rm -rf ~/.condarc ~/.conda ~/.continuum

In my case (Mac High Sierra) it was installed at ~/opt/anaconda3.
