Uninstalling Xcode 3.2.6 from Lion 10.7.2

I've installed xCode 3.2.6 on my Lion 10.7.2.

After install I can't find the xCode icon to launch it. I've got to know 3.2.6 doesn't support Lion.

However, the worst thing happen when I tried to uninstall it with

sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all

Unfortunately uninstall-devtools wasn't there. I'm stuck middle of nowhere.

Does anybody have any idea how to uninstall it and install xCode 4.2?

How do I completely remove Xcode from my Mac?

The first step to uninstalling Xcode from your Mac (and deleting its residual files) is to move the app itself to the macOS Bin. Launch Finder and click Applications on the right sidebar. Right-click on the Xcode icon and select Move to Bin on the context menu. That will immediately uninstall Xcode from your Mac.

How do I uninstall an older version of Xcode?

To uninstall newer versions of Xcode is much like deleting any other app from the Mac: Navigate to the /Applications/ folder and locate “Xcode” application. Drag “XCode” to the Trash and empty the trash as usual by right-clicking on the Trash icon and choosing 'Empty Trash'

Is it safe to delete Xcode from Mac?

Yes, you can, as long as you install the command line tools. After running this, I also had to run sudo xcode-select --reset because of this.
