how do I persistently remove from $PATH on macOS (Z Shell)

Question

I used a command of the form

echo 'export PATH="..."' >> ~/.zshrc

As a result, the path has been added persistently. Now, I want to remove it. How do I do this? I know that there are posts about this already, but none of the provided solutions worked for my case.

Answer 1

Running echo 'export PATH="..."' >> ~/.zshrc appends the string export PATH="..." to the file ~/.zshrc.

So, to undo this, just edit the file ~/.zshrc and remove the export PATH="..." statement from it.
