What is the correct way to uninsrtall a app installed using npx?

I want to remove a package reinstalled with npx.

I tried removing the package from where it's installed (C:\Users\vince\AppData\Roaming\npm) by deleting manually the ps1, bat and the package folder and it still didn't worked.

I tried to remove it using npx react-devtools --remove and it still didn't got removed(NPX Didn't showed any output indicating that it sucessfully removed react-devtools). Here is how the command look:

PS C:\Users\vince\project\js\tinder-cli> npx react-devtools --remove

I expect npx to remove react-devtools with a sucess message or something like a sucess message.

Solution

  • I uninstall the package by deleting all the content of the directory: C:\Users\vince\AppData\Local\npm-cache\_npx
