i cant remove evillimiter. i got form github , and typed … git clone GitHub - bitbrute/evillimiter: Tool that monitors, analyzes and limits the bandwidth of devices on the local network without administrative access. , and i was tried to remove this or uninstall but i cant fix , and i tried with ALT + . for hidden files then i found evillimiter and removed , but i can still access , i dont know how to remove evillimiter , or any git clone apps . so anyone help me.
Typically it is sufficient to just delete the directory in which the git repo was cloned.
This is, of course, unless you’ve ran some install script with root privileges, in which case you’ll have to hunt down all the files and delete them manually.
EDIT:
Since this program uses setup.py to install your program, you can probably list all the files with the command:
python setup.py install --record files.txt
Then delete all these files. Not sure if it will work in this specific case.
This is why you use a package manager to install software, much less hassle that way.

Welcome! 
Next time when you want to install something, use either pacman (for official packages only) or yay (both official and AUR packages).
For example, evillimiter can be installed with
yay -S evillimiter
and it is easy to uninstall with yay as well (yay -R package-name).
To search packages on the command line, you can use command
pacman -Ss word(s) # official
yay -Ss word(s) # AUR
You can also look at AUR packages here and official packages here.

ok thanks, - Could not delete file /home/hello-nahian/.local/share/Trash/files/files name , how to fix this one?
Maybe you don’t have permissions?
To see the file permissions, use command
ls -la /home/hello-nahian/.local/share/Trash/files/
ls -la /home/hello-nahian/.local/share/Trash/files/

~/.local/share/Trash/files
Use sudo too:
cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files && sudo rm -rf *
sudo cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files && sudo rm -rf *
[sudo] password for hello-nahian:
sudo: cd: command not found
Please copy my latest command line as is… no sudo in the beginning but later.
cd ~/.local/share/Trash/files && sudo rm -rf * sudo 1 ✘ 6s
[sudo] password for hello-nahian:
~/.local/share/Trash/files
now?
Hard to read your text here because of the special characters …
Run this line only:
sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/files/*
It does the same thing as the previous command line.
yes same as previous
So it is OK now?
thanks , it seems like deleted all my file that i can`t remove
