Clearing the data folder

Before deleting anything, please note:
If you have linked your Workforce Agent to Control Room, you should remove the corresponding Environment from your Control Room workspace. Link data is unique to your installation and cannot be recreated, so the Cloud's corresponding Runtime Environment becomes obsolete.

Robocorp Workforce Agent stores data files under a common folder according to OS conventions. The folder holds the cache for running environments, logs, and the data that links your Workforce Agent to Control Room.

• On Windows, find this in: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\robocorp\
  • Copy & paste to File Explorer address bar.
• On macOS and Linux in: ~/.robocorp/
  • On macOS: Go -> Go to Folder -> write ~/.robocorp/.
  • On Linux... just go there ;)

One more choice before clearing:

• If you are NOT using any other Robocorp tools (Robocorp Lab, Robocorp Assistant or Robocorp Code):
  ...and just want to clean everything --> You can delete the whole folder.

• If you ARE using other Robocorp tools and want to keep using it:
  --> You should only delete the /workforce-agent folder.
