Delete user data of misconfigured containers

When removing apps, ZimaOS does ask if we want to remove the corresponding user data folder from AppData:

But if the new container does not start at all or is in a loop due to some misconfiguration, this menu does not appear and user data remains in AppData,

Hello,

Thank you for your question. Regarding the issue of deleting user data from misconfigured containers, we would like to clarify that ZimaOS cannot accurately identify what constitutes a configuration file. Therefore, we have a clear rule: only configurations located in the AppData directory are considered configuration files. For data stored in other locations, ZimaOS will not take any action.

If you need to clean up or delete specific data, we recommend manually checking and handling content outside the AppData directory. If you have further questions or need additional support, please feel free to reach out to us!

Thank you for your understanding and support!

Thank you for the explanation, LinkLeong.

In fact, I was talking about folder inside AppData.

But I just tested it again with v1.3.2-beta2. Even with misconfiguration, the folder is now deleted properly.
