Uninstalled npm packages but they are still installed

I want to start a fresh installation of the yoemen but it seems that I can't get rid of it in the first place

when I run npm remove -g yo bower grunt-cli it removes normally but when I type yo I get the normal generator menu:

How do I get rid of all the generators (the ones shown in the picture) and remove yoemen to reinstall it?

thank you

  • I had to remove everything and start over again.

    To install latest node and npm: https://gist.github.com/jsantana90/46c9bb977d5775df1516
