I can't find the kptop command after installing kptop. Is there any step I am missing?

Hi @llody55
that happened with me once when I installed it without root, please try the following and let me know if it worked

uninstall kptop from the normal user & the user

pip3 uninstall kptop

sudo su
pip3 uninstall kptop

Then re-install it with sudo

sudo pip3 install kptop --upgrade

My test environment only has the root user, and the system version is centos7.9. I try to uninstall and reinstall, but the same problem exists.

`[root@llody-dev ~]#pip3 uninstall kptop
