Description

### Checks

- [x] I have searched [github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues?q=) and there are no duplicates of my issue
- [x] I have run `q doctor` in the affected terminal session
- [x] I have run `q restart` and replicated the issue again

### Operating system

macOS 15.7.1 (24G231)

### Expected behaviour

When Amazon Q app auto updates it should un-mount its volume once it is done.

### Actual behaviour

It seems it leaves mounted volumes on my system. I removed 20 volumes a while ago, now I have 4 volumes back:

```
ls /Volumes/ | grep Amazon
Amazon Q
Amazon Q 1
Amazon Q 2
Amazon Q 3
```

### Steps to reproduce

Just let the app update itself.
