re: https://docs.ipfs.tech/install/ipfs-desktop/#windows

It would be super to allow users to know what will be installed in windows outside program files -- for clean uninstallations.

Are you having trouble with the uninstallation process?

ElPaisano commented 1 year ago

All files installed with the IPFS Desktop application will be stored in location that you select during the install process.

Additionally, npmjs.com/package/go-ipfs will run the version of Kubo for the IPFS Desktop install, resulting in all files normally installed with Kubo being installed as well i.e. $HOME/.ipfs.

Please let us know if this answers your question at all.
