Name

dotnetup uninstall - Remove an SDK install specification and unused files.

This command is an alias for dotnetup sdk uninstall.

Synopsis

dotnetup uninstall <CHANNEL> [options]

Arguments

CHANNEL

The stored SDK channel or exact version to remove. Use dotnetup list to find the stored value.

Options

Option	Description
--source <explicit\|globaljson\|all>	Remove specifications from the selected source. The default is explicit.
--manifest-path <MANIFEST_PATH>	Use a custom manifest file.
--install-path <INSTALL_PATH>	Select the installation root. Without this option, use the current managed root or the default installation root.
--interactive [<true\|false>]	Enable confirmation for unexpected outcomes. The default is false in CI or when output is redirected, and true otherwise. Redirected input alone doesn't disable confirmation.
--non-interactive	Proceed without confirmation, even if --interactive is enabled. Warnings still appear.
-?, -h, --help	Show command help.

Examples

Remove an explicit feature-band requirement:

dotnetup uninstall 10.0.1xx

Remove matching requirements from any source:

dotnetup uninstall 10.0.1xx --source all

An installation remains when another specification still refers to it. Garbage collection can also remove other unreferenced installations in the root. Before it changes state, the command warns about these outcomes and asks for confirmation in interactive mode. Press Y or Enter to proceed, or N or Esc to cancel without removing specifications or files. For details, see SDK uninstall behavior.
