Deleting devx container didn't delete sfs file

#1 Post by E3D3 »

I installed as sfsget tryout the devx-package, stupid enough in a container, forgetting the advice I have read.
I removed it with the Easy Container Manager from the main menu by selecting it from the dropdown list and a click on the button 'Delete container: delete & exit',
but the sfs file (>200MB) and many other small files with names starting with devx in different folders are still present.
Is this normal ? And how can I clean/remove everything from the devx package ? Is there a file that list what was exactly installed with the devx package ?

What exact Puppy version?
How is it installed?
Full or frugal?
If frugal is there a save icon on the desktop?

If there are containers, perhaps he's using EasyOS?
