Description
- OS: Windows
- Version of IPFS Desktop 0.16.0
**Describe the bug**
The following folders are created by IPFS-Desktop while it's being used by the user:
`%AppData%\Roaming\IPFS Desktop`
`%USERPROFILE%\.ipfs`
`%USERPROFILE%\.ipfs-desktop`
None of which will be removed when IPFS-Desktop will be uninstalled.
Following the principle of the least surprise this should be the case, as this is the warn message Windows shows when uninstalling an application:
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Use IPFS Desktop
2. Uninstall it via the Settings -> Apps
3. Complete the uninstall procedure
4. Look at the quoted paths, which still exist
**Expected behavior**
All data associated with IPFS Desktop should be removed when uninstalling.
