Uninstalled all pip, Homebrew, and Anaconda packages, but Jupyter Notebook still works

I installed Jupyter either through pip, Homebrew, or Anaconda. My packages and stuff are all getting messed up, so I want to completely start over from scratch as if I got a new computer. I followed instructions for uninstall pip, Homebrew, and Anaconda packages, but running jupyter notebook in Terminal still works.

Any help to kind of reset my computer?

Uninstalling the installing software (like pip, homebrew, or anaconda) won't uninstall things you installed with it. What to do to fix this depends on what you used to install jupyter notebook, but the first step is to reinstall the installer you used. Then:


If you used pip, get pip again and run this command:

pip uninstall jupyter

You might have to do this instead:

python3 -m pip uninstall jupyter

If you used Homebrew, do this:

brew uninstall jupyter

If you used Anaconda you should do this (from this answer):

conda remove jupyter jupyter-client jupyter-console jupyter-core
