This sounds like a stale-hash situation. According to my

the shell will typically keep a cache of what path it found a given

to re-do the filesystem accesses on every run of the command; this
mapping of known paths to commands is apparently referred to as a set
of
hashes.
I'm not familiar with zsh, but in bash, you could try 'hash -d fzf' to
drop the cached known path for fzf (so that the next check will look
it
up again from scratch), or even 'hash -r' to forget *all* the known
paths for everything.
The "hash" command does not appear to even be installed on my system,
even with sudo, maybe because I'm using zsh. But I did a little googling
around and found this tip:
PATH="$PATH"
This will reset the command cache in zsh. I don't think this is the
official way to do it, though.
