Good morning all, I am using the com.russhwolf:multiplatform-settings library for KMM. Is the mobile apps for Apple and Google is pretty easy to clear the "shared preferences". But I have not found a way of doing so in the Desktop app. Anybody has found a solutions to clear them to test new installations? Really appreciate your help.

There is a built-in preferences java class

Also DataStore might already support JVM

Thanks Ellet. I probably did formulate my question wrong :), basically I need a manual way to delete the preferences that are created. So that I can simulate initial installs. When running the desktop app in android studio, i do manually delete the sqlite dbs to simulate a new installation but not sure how to delete the preferences.

You want a manual way to delete the preferences are created, but by who and when, I'm not sure why sqlite dbs created by default on new installation unless it's explicitly created in the code

[sergio artalejo]

They are created by the code empty and then synced with the server*

The preferences are more configurable data from the user, authenticaton tokens…

I see, not sure if I know the solution as I haven't tried that library mentioned above

[sergio artalejo]

Just found this issue in the library:
https://github.com/russhwolf/multiplatform-settings/issues/135

Will try and see if they managed to solve it
