You can use dnvm uninstall command. For example

dnvm uninstall 1.0.0-rc2-16343 -r coreclr -arch x64

You should just change the default to another dnx if you want to uninstall the current one. I described in the answer step by step how one can install a new version of dnx, try it and then uninstall it.

You will see that the most what do dnvm uninstall is deleting of the folder existing under %USERPROFILE%\.dnx\runtimes.

Thanks, I could not see the point of keeping the old beta versions available, which is why i wanted to remove them from the list. – Kirsten Jan 01 '16 at 23:15
@kirsteng: You are welcome! I uninstalled old versions from my computer too. – Oleg Jan 01 '16 at 23:45

You can also delete the folders in c:/users//.dnx/runtimes

They were talking about this dnvm uninstall on github. Make sure you have an up-to-date dnvm with dnvm update-self.
