Uninstallation Question About Flatpak Linking
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Why does it do anything after uninstalling even?
(I get the file removing part but why make the coapp available from browser sandboxes? And how do I revert that??)
I think I may have figured it out, basically it gives a flatpak permission?
To check if you have it run:
flatpak permissions
This is how I removed it:
flatpak permission-remove webextensions net.downloadhelper.coapp
Is there anything else it does + "what is VdhCoApp unregistered itself"?
The coapp adds the permission to flatpak but also creates files under .mozilla and similar configuration directories for Chrome, Edge and other browsers.
As described right here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_manifests#linux
You can see the list of files here:
Hope this answers your question :)
Thank you for the quick answer, it's just confusing that an uninstall shows these messages, I think you should remove them.
