How to uninstall a theme from tmux while there is no tmux.conf?

I installed tmux on my ubuntu using apt install tmux and than I cloned this theme repository from GitHub and just simply ran the theme script using ./tmux-power.tmux.

Now that I want to uninstall the theme and head back to the default one, there is no tmux.conf file at all.

I removed the cloned repository and also completely uninstalled tmux using sudo apt-get purge tmux but still stuck with installed theme.

While I was trying to find tmux.conf I found tmux repository at /usr/share/doc/tmux but there where no tmux.conf either (see image bellow).

Your .tmux.conf file should be in your home directory, but it's a hidden file (beginning with a .).

Try and run ls -la in your homedir, and see if it's there.

If you want a fresh install of tmux, remove the config file in your homedir before reinstalling:
rm ~/.tmux.conf

Now all tmux config should be reset to default.
