I need to do a clean installation of VS Code on my mac.
I opened the terminal and removed the .vscode/
from ~
. I also deleted the Visual Studio Code.app/
from /
. However, after deleting all that and downloading a fresh copy, I installed and open the editor and the editor remembered the last project I had. For me, that means that it is something else I need to delete but I can't find it. I went to the documentation but can't find anything about uninstalling the editor.
Does anyone know how to completely uninstall VSCode from mac?
Following these instructions and doing a new installation of VS Code, but it still keeps remembering the last project I opened.
The solution to my problem was to cd
to the following path... /Users/<user>/Library/Application\ Support
and delete the folder called Code
. That folder contains all the setting and is not overwrite with a new installation. Looking through the entire file structure, VSCode name folder different. Sometimes folders are called .vscode/
, or code/
, or Visual Studio Code.app
.
