Answer 1

You might as well use dotnet-core-uninstall tool which allow you to select a specific SDK or runtime version to remove. github docs

If you are experiencing issues with building Xamarin.Mac after installing preview version of .Net 5 SDK you might like to remove Mono using such script and Visual Studio like this and try to reinstall from scratch

good luck
