 First, I have to say that your screenshot is odd.  New profiles should 
only be installed if the minor version changes (e.g. 0.4 to 0.5); any other 
change (e.g. 0.4-dev to 0.4-rc3) should overwrite the existing profile.   
I've updated Julia many times and only have three profiles (0.3, 0.4, and 
0.5).   The next time you see a new profile appearing for the same minor 
version number, please file a bug report with IJulia and we'll try to find 
out what happened.

Second, the kernels for Jupyter are in directories in one of the jupyter 
data directories -- run "jupyter --paths" to list all the directories where 
Jupyter stores its stuff.  I think in the first path listed under "data:" 
is where you'll find a directory called "kernels" that contains 
subdirectories for all the kernels that are installed.  Delete the ones you 
don't want.

I think you have to delete the `kernels` directory in your `.ipython` 
directory.

Hi David, what files exactly? I tried to delete the profiles, but I don't
see them under .ipython nor .jupyter

Thank you Steven, problem solved. Found the kernels directory and deleted
the old versions.
