Cannot uninstall Anaconda on mac

Question

I first tried the method at this link https://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/install/uninstall/ and tried to rm -rf the folder, but the folder is still currently in my opt file.

Then I tried to use conda install anaconda-clean by the time I try to use anaconda-clean --yes it just gave me a command not found error.

Now I can clearly see that the anaconda3 folder is still in the opt folder, and for this reason, I cannot reinstall this because it will show that "anaconda has already been installed" and asks me to update instead of reinstalling it. The issue now is that I can neither install nor uninstall anaconda. I do now know how to progress next.

Answer 1

open your terminal and enter and then remove directory or enter rm -rf ~/anaconda3 (this command works if you have anaconda 3)
