If you mean uninstall you can use the manage palette option in the menu on any operating system

It depends how you installed it...

It should be `npm uninstall name-of-node` in your `.node-red` directory

If you are on node-red v0.20.x and had read the blog posting for [Node-RED: Version 0.20 released](https://nodered.org/blog/2019/03/12/version-0-20-released) you might remember the new `--safe` parameter.

You should still be able to npm uninstall as @ukmoose said.

- Open a command prompt
- Cd to your node red folder
- `npm uninstall exact-name-of-node`

Incase it's installed globally, then `npm -g uninstall exact-name-of-node`
