I want to uninstall the old ShopifyCLI 2.26.0 that is installed in my computer because I want to use the new ShopifyCLI 3.*
but none of the commands are working:
npm uninstall -g @shopify/cli npm uninstall -D @shopify/cli @shopify/app
when I try to check the version, it's still here:
shopify version
2.26.0
I tried reading the list of commands from shopify help, but no uninstall command is available:

How to remove this?!
Solved! Go to the solution
This is an accepted solution.
Try this. It removed mine...
* Use Powershell Terminal
* Get-Command shopify | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Source
* Remove-Item -Force "C:\Path\To\shopify"
Note: From the Get command, if you see a path, follow the steps next to it and replaced it based on path that you see. usually you will see /shopify.bat or /shopify. Delete both. Then, run again 'shopify version' if you see an error, you are successful. Then do npm install -g @Shopify/cli again. It will install 3.x version.

I just found it and deleted the files manually.
