The 3.8 directory should still be there if you added anything thing,
such as to site-packages, but the stuff added by the installer should be
gone.

Removal varies by Operating System!

Regardless, it's likely problematic trying to remove the 'old', *after*
installing the 'new'.

Perhaps remove any and all versions, ensure the system is 'clean', then
start-again...

I wouldn't do that, you can meet missing libraries for Py3.9.2 and then
need to install Py3.8 again. Just wait with uninstalling Py3.8 for a
while.
