I uninstalled it twice yesterday and nothing happened- but a large formatting error like that seems like a kink that should've been weeded out before release lmao

For anyone else that is curious how something like this happens, this is supposedly from a Mojang employee:

I've been reading online that this bug was causing entire disks to be wiped out, which was not necessarily the case. So I'd like to clarify what the bug was about in more detail, and what is the fix we released within around 30 minutes after hearing the first report:

When a player selected a custom "Install Location" in the Dungeons installation dialog, the Dungeons Launcher was taking that location and naively considering that only files written by the Dungeons Launcher would live there. Thus, when uninstalling the Launcher, the uninstall logic would simply delete that "Install Location" folder, to leave no traces of program files created by the Launcher on disk.

We didn't consider that the custom location chosen by players could also have files belonging to other programs in it. And unfortunately, we didn't catch that in tests. So the bug would only impact players who had selected a custom install location for Dungeons where other program files also exist, then tried to uninstall the Dungeons Launcher.

The fix we released soon after hearing about the first report (which is in Bootstrap version 166 and up) is to delete only the folders that the Launcher knows about, under the Dungeons install location.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience this might have caused to players and will surely take this as a learning experience for improving our quality assurance process.

Anyone who wants to play with my kid add Deinen0 on Nintendo Switch.
