    You’ll need to rm remove each file manually. Also, be mindful of whether any of those files replaced a pre-existing file. There is no simple undo.

    To uninstall the script shells that you installed using the command ./install.sh, you need to locate the installed files and remove them. Since you mentioned that you know the locations of the .sh files, you can follow these steps to uninstall them:

    1. Open a terminal or command prompt.
    2. Navigate to the directory where the .sh files are located using the cd command. For example: 
      cd /path/to/script/directory
    3. Once you are in the correct directory, you can uninstall the scripts by running the rm command followed by the filenames of the .sh files. For example: 
      rm script1.sh script2.sh script3.sh

      Replace script1.sh, script2.sh, script3.sh, etc., with the actual filenames of the script shells you want to uninstall.

    4. Confirm the removal when prompted.

    After executing these steps, the script shells will be uninstalled from your system. Make sure you are certain about uninstalling them, as this action cannot be undone.
