@holgersindbaek For a quick solution, open a terminal and run curl "https://gist.github.com/yoneken/3284561/raw/db665bb64f93e38ce138b5ca620b9edd18dc31e4/remove_CLI_tools.sh" | sh
. That’ll download this script and immediately run it.
its not downloading either uninstalling .
after executing it says
xcode-select: error: command line tools are already installed, use "Software Update" to install updates
finally i did using
sudo rm -rf /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
