Reinstallation deletes home directory without warning

Environment

Windows build number: 10.0.19041.0
Your Distribution version: 18.04
Whether the issue is on WSL 2 and/or WSL 1: Linux version 4.4.0-19041-Microsoft (Microsoft@Microsoft.com) (gcc version 5.4.0 (GCC) ) #1-Microsoft Fri Dec 06 14:06:00 PST 2019

Steps to reproduce

1. Right-click the Ubuntu icon in the start menu, choose uninstall.
2. Choose OK if you really want to remove it.
3. Re-install the same distribution from Microsoft Store.
4. Lanuch again and check your ~ directory for your files.

Unbutu had crashed adn refused to start with the error message

The exception s (0xPress any key to continue...

The only way forward was to re-install the distribution.

Expected behavior

To delete the application should never delete the data in the user directory. That's like deleting Word and having Users\My Documents deleted

Actual behavior

It appers that the file system gets nulled when uninstalling the distribution. Information like this shoud:

A. Be preserved when the application is deleted.
or at the absolute minimum:
B. A warning saying that uninstalling an application will also format the file system.

Start with the listed uninstall and reinstall reproduction steps and confirm whether the distribution filesystem is removed. The issue names no source files, tests, or code entry points, so trace the uninstall behavior from that flow. Done means preserving the home-directory data or presenting a clear warning before deletion.
