I am trying to uninstall Python 2. I have attempted to do this both from my computer's Control Panel and from the Ubuntu command line using sudo apt remove python2. Both of these actions appear to work, except that when I check in /usr/bin, python2 is still there, and using my file explorer I see that python.exe still exists in WindowsApps. Similarly, when I run the python_version() in Canopy it tells me it is still using Python 2.7.13. I am not sure what the issue is, and would appreciate any advice. For reference, I am using Windows, 64bit, Ubuntu 20.04.
Output of type python:
python is hashed (/usr/bin/python)Output of file /usr/bin/python:
/usr/bin/python2: symbolic link to python2.7Output of apt list --installed | grep python
