.../php/vendor does not exist and could not be created - how to solve?

Question

linux

I had a vendor folder, but I deleted it. Now when trying to install composer:

spoiler

$ php composer.phar install

Installing dependencies from lock file (including require-dev)

when trying to reinstall

spoiler

$ php composer.phar reinstall *
Pattern "chromedriver" does not match any currently installed packages.
Pattern "composer.json" does not match any currently installed packages.
Pattern "composer.lock" does not match any currently installed packages.
Pattern "composer.phar" does not match any currently installed packages.
Pattern "simplehtmldom" does not match any currently installed packages.
Found no packages to reinstall, aborting.

And when writing a global command, it writes

$ composer
PHP Warning:  require(Composer/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/bin/composer on line 9
PHP Fatal error:  require(): Failed opening required 'Composer/autoload.php' (include_path='/var/www/sites/') in /usr/bin/composer on line 9

but now I deleted composer in a different way, everything remained exactly in the system:

$ sudo rm /usr/bin/composer
$ sudo apt purge composer

$ composer
-bash: /usr/bin/composer: No such file or directory

$  php composer.phar install
// Та же самая ошибка

How to clean up traces?
