How to remove/uninstall old version of PyTorch, mkl, libcublas, etc.?

In the past, I installed some dependencies to run different GitHub repository projects. Now I found that there are some duplicates and hope to keep only the new version and remove the old ones. Some examples appear in the following screenshot. Can anyone explain how to do it? Thank you! Disk Usage

Solution

  • Ok, it turns out that the solution is simple.

    Several commands can be run in the following order:

    Firstly, this command cleans package caches:

    conda clean --all

    Then, if some environments are no longer needed, these commands can remove them:

    conda env list
conda remove --name ENV_NAME --all

    Finally, this command can remove unused package files:

    conda clean --packages

    After running all these commands, unneeded packages will be removed.
