The installer adds menu entries on Linux and Windows, and several application
bundles to the Applications
folder on macOS.
.. rst-class:: list-unstyled
.. rst-class:: mx-5
.. rst-class:: mt-4
.. rst-class:: mb-5
|code| |ensp| Set up Visual Studio Code or another IDE (:ref:`instructions here <ide_setup>`) to start writing your own analysis scripts right away, or to run one of our examples from this website.
.. rst-class:: mt-3
|desktop| |ensp| With System Info, list the versions of all installed MNE-Python-related packages.
.. rst-class:: mt-3
|terminal| |ensp| The Prompt drops you into a command line interface with a properly activated MNE-Python environment.
Note
|hourglass-half| |ensp| Depending on your system, it may take a little while for these applications to start, especially on the very first run – which may take particularly long on Apple Silicon-based computers. Subsequent runs should usually be much faster.
To remove the MNE-Python distribution provided by our installers above:
Remove relevant lines from your shell initialization scripts if you added them at installation time. To do this, you can run from the MNE Prompt:
$ conda init --reverse
Or you can manually edit shell initialization scripts, e.g.,
~/.bashrc
or~/.bash_profile
.Follow the instructions below to remove the MNE-Python conda installation for your platform:
.. tab-set:: :class: uninstall-selector-tabset .. tab-item:: Linux :name: uninstall-linux In a BASH terminal you can do: .. code-block:: bash $ which python /home/username/mne-python/1.9.0_0/bin/python $ rm -Rf /home/$USER/mne-python $ rm /home/$USER/.local/share/applications/mne-python-*.desktop .. tab-item:: macOS :name: uninstall-macos You can simply `drag the MNE-Python folder to the trash in the Finder <https://support.apple.com/en-us/102610>`__. Alternatively, you can do something like: .. code-block:: bash $ which python /Users/username/Applications/MNE-Python/1.9.0_0/.mne-python/bin/python $ rm -Rf /Users/$USER/Applications/MNE-Python # if user-specific $ rm -Rf /Applications/MNE-Python # if system-wide .. tab-item:: Windows :name: uninstall-windows To uninstall MNE-Python, you can remove the application using the `Windows Control Panel <https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uninstall-or-remove-apps-and-programs-in-windows-4b55f974-2cc6-2d2b-d092-5905080eaf98>`__.
