Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/10514

What is the issue?

When ollama is uninstalled using the control panel, the entry for the ollama installation folder still remains in my PATH environment variable. The .ollama folder in my user home folder isn't removed too, but I think this is intentional. I'm using an integrated GPU, which doesn't work with ollama anyway.

The ollama installer for windows also doesn't check if there is already entry for ollama in the PATH, and sometimes adds a duplicate.

Ollama version
