Fatima,
try
rm -rf $FREESURFER_HOME
The command which Pedro gave you assumed that your freesurfer installation directory was /usr/local/, which may not be the case. If you had freesurfer correctly installed before, you must have had the $FREESURFER_HOME variable set correctly. Thus the command above should remove, if you have sufficent permissions.
To check whether the command was effective you could try
ls $FREESURFER_HOME
If there are no file listed, you have successfully removed it.
Hope this helps.

I executed this command, but nothing happened. Is that supposed to happen? How do I know if this has uninstalled Freesurfer?
Thank you and regards,
Fatima

You can simply execute:
rm -rf /usr/local/freesurfer
If your freesurfer installation is in another directory, change the command above accordingly

Hello Experts,
I apologise for the stupidity of this question, but I am not used to using Linux at all, but I need to uninstall my Freesurfer and then reinstall it, however, I have no idea how to uninstall in Linux. Can someone possibly assist me in this problem? I’d be extremely grateful.
Thank you and Kind regards,
Fatima
