Where are environment variables stored and how to remove them

Question

Hello, I discovered it's possible to set environment variables using the

export key=value

command in the shell, but now I'm wondering: how can I remove an environment variable stored like this and where are they stored?

Hi @iKingNinja

how can I remove an environment variable stored like this and where are they stored?

You can refer to this article: Use multiple environments in ASP.NET Core
In the local machine development: the environment can be set in the Properties\launchSettings.json file of the project. Environment values set in launchSettings.json override values set in the system environment.
In the production environment: It depends on the production environment, for example, in windows server, you can set the ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT environment variable with web.config. Then, in macOS, Machine-level environment variables are set in the .bashrc or .bash_profile file. Edit the file using any text editor.
