Just looking at my cache drive and noticed that there are many 'deleted' versions of dockers in the APPDATA folder.  At one time, I had installed plex a couple times trying things out.  So I now have 3 plex directories (Plexmediaserver, PlexMediaServer and plexmediaserver).  plexmediaserver is the most recent version.  When I "remove" a docker from APPS on the Dashboard, shouldn't that also delete the directory from APPDATA?  Or do I have to do that manually?

 

Thanks in advance!

Nope not automatic (what if you want to reinstall?)

CA appdata cleanup will offer up to delete them for you. Confirm what you want deleted and you're done

Thanks Squid.  I gave that a try, but not all of the directories were listed...

Is it safe to just delete the extra directories?

Yes its safe if no app you have is using them.

 

What cleanup appdata does is look through and find the folders that were referenced as appdata in your previously installed docker apps.  If it can't find it there, it doesn't offer to delete them as the assumption is they may still be in use (ie: through a plugin?)
