# flox uninstall

## NAME

flox-uninstall - remove packages from an environment

## SYNOPSIS

```text theme={null}
flox [<general options>] (uninstall|rm)
     [-d=<path> | -r=<owner/name>]
     <packages>
```

## DESCRIPTION

Uninstall packages from an environment.

Just like package installation, package uninstallation is transactional.
See [`flox-install`](/man/flox-install) for more details on
transactions. Requesting to uninstall multiple packages where at least
one of them was not previously installed will cause the transaction to
fail and no packages will be uninstalled.

## OPTIONS

### Remove Options

`<packages>`\
The install IDs or package paths of the packages to remove. If the
manifest contains both an install ID and a package with matching package
path, the install ID takes precedence. If the same package path is
installed under different install IDs, an error is returned. A package
path can optionally contain the original version constraint.

### Environment Options

If no environment is specified for an environment command, the
environment in the current directory or the active environment that was
last activated is used.

`-d`, `--dir`\
Path containing a .flox/ directory.

`-r`, `--reference`\
A FloxHub environment, specified in the form `<owner>/<name>`.

`-D`, `--default`\
Use your default environment (`<your-user>/default`). When
unauthenticated in an interactive context, you will be prompted to log
in. In non-interactive contexts (e.g., scripts or CI), this flag will
fail with an error when authentication is missing.

### General Options

`-h`, `--help`\
Prints help information.

The following options can be passed when running any `flox` subcommand
but must be specified *before* the subcommand.

`-v`, `--verbose`\
Increase logging verbosity. Invoke multiple times for increasing detail.

`-q`, `--quiet`\
Silence logs except for errors.
