Hello people, I was planning to update my Erlang and elixir versions. For that, I just removed the older versions I had and then installed the newer versions of Erlang and Elixir. Now the problem is afterward (after updating PATH) when I run erl on the command line I got this error:
Cannot find file at 'c:\program files\erlang otp\erts-13.1.3\bin\erl.exe' (c:\program files\erlang otp\erts-13.1.3\bin\erl.exe). This usually indicates a missing or moved file.
I decided to remove everything elixir and erlang related, I uninstalled both of them, I removed elixir and erlang from PATH and I also made sure I removed them from Registry Editor and restarted the computer. Despite all that I still get the same error when running erl on command line or powershell. What could be the issue there?

I figured it out, it was the shimi file (or whatever it is called) added by chocolatey. I found it by searching for anything that matched the keywords: erlang and erl. Removed it manually and then installed the erlang and elixir again, works just fine now.
