Uninstalling Go

Taken from official docs

You can remove Go from your system using the steps described in this topic.

Linux / macOS / FreeBSD

Delete the go directory.

This is usually /usr/local/go. Remove the Go bin directory from your PATH environment variable.

Under Linux and FreeBSD, edit /etc/profile or $HOME/.profile. If you installed Go with the macOS package, remove the /etc/paths.d/go file.

Windows

The simplest way to remove Go is via Add/Remove Programs in the Windows control panel:

1. In Control Panel, double-click Add/Remove Programs.
2. In Add/Remove Programs, select Go Programming Language, click Uninstall, then follow the prompts.

For removing Go with tools, you can also use the command line:

1. Uninstall using the command line by running the following command:

   msiexec /x go{{version}}.windows-{{cpu-arch}}.msi /q
   

Note: Using this uninstall process for Windows will automatically remove Windows environment variables created by the original installation.
