How did you install nvm? (e.g. install script in readme, homebrew): install script in reame: curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.6/install.sh | bash
What steps did you perform? nvm uninstall v8.5
What happened? nothing, output nothing
What did you expect to happen? uninstall v8.5
Is there anything in any of your profile files (.bashrc, .bash_profile, .zshrc, etc) that modifies the PATH?

If you are having installation issues, or getting "N/A", what does curl -I --compressed -v https://nodejs.org/dist/ print out?

@nepaul does it not working with other versions? Does it now working if you switched to use bash shell?

nepaul commented 7 years ago

@PeterDaveHello It once worked. Maybe since MacOS High Sierra?

ljharb commented 7 years ago

@nepaul what's the output from set -x; nvm uninstall v8.5?

PeterDaveHello commented 7 years ago

@nepaul I don't think so as I tested it with High Sierra and I got no problem.

@ljharb set -x; nvm uninstall v8.5 output: nvm_check_file_permisions .....like below:

NineDayForever commented 5 years ago

same problem nvm: 0.34.0 ,mac OS 10.13, zsh 5.3 rm -rf ~/.nvm/versions/node/vx.xx.x/lib/node_modules then nvm uninstall will success

ljharb commented 5 years ago

@NineDayForever that suggests you used sudo npm install -g at some point. sudo is never needed with nvm, and doing so will definitely prevent your ability to uninstall.

nvm-sh / nvm
