I set up winboat on MX Linux KDE. The app isn't listed in the installed software list and doesn't appear on their site. I discovered some commands to remove it, but I'm unsure if it fully eliminated all traces, especially the Windows VM files. I need confirmation that these files are completely gone so I won't waste space on W11. I'm concerned about the snapshot I'm creating and want to ensure it's as clean as possible before deploying.

WinBoat doesn't appear to have Docker volumes, but you can check all containers with `docker ps -a`. If WinBoat exists, remove it using `docker rm -v WinBoat` (or its actual name) to delete the container and any volumes it might hold. Otherwise, your WinBoat data remains in the designated folders mentioned by @xAcid9.
