Jupyter Notebook, a popular tool among data scientists and researchers, provides an interactive environment to create and share documents containing live code, equations, visualizations, and more. However, there might be instances where you need to uninstall Jupyter from your system, perhaps to free up space, resolve conflicts, or perform a fresh installation.<\/p>\n
In this guide, we will walk you through the steps to uninstall Jupyter Notebook from an Ubuntu system.<\/p>\n
Let’s get started.<\/p>\n
Before you can uninstall Jupyter, you need to determine how it was installed. The uninstallation process varies depending on whether you used pip, conda, or the Ubuntu package manager.<\/p>\n
If you installed Jupyter using pip, you can uninstall it with the following command:<\/p>\n
\r\nsudo pip3 uninstall jupyter\r\n<\/pre>\nStep 3: Uninstalling Jupyter Installed via conda<\/h2>\n
For those who used conda (from Anaconda or Miniconda) to install Jupyter:<\/p>\n
\r\nconda remove jupyter\r\n<\/pre>\nStep 4: Uninstalling Jupyter Installed via Ubuntu Package Manager<\/h2>\n
If you installed Jupyter using the Ubuntu package manager:<\/p>\n
\r\nsudo apt-get purge jupyter*\r\nsudo apt-get autoremove\r\n<\/pre>\nStep 5: Remove Configuration and Data Files<\/h2>\n
After uninstalling Jupyter, you might want to remove its configuration and data files:<\/p>\n
\r\nrm -rf ~\/.jupyter\r\n<\/pre>\nStep 6: Verify Uninstallation<\/h2>\n
To ensure that Jupyter has been completely removed:<\/p>\n
\r\njupyter --version\r\n<\/pre>\nIf Jupyter is uninstalled, this command should return an error or state that the command ‘jupyter’ is not found.<\/p>\n
