Hi
I cant open VLC anymore after change a setting in its preferences.
Uninstall and reinstall VLC did not solve the problem.
Therefore I need uninstall VLC removing all its settings.

I use Arch Linux, flatpak 0.10.4.

Thank you, TingPing. Solved.
So currently there is no method to uninstall flatpaks also removing its settings?

There is not and atm there cannot reliably be since some apps store settings outside of that directory (via DConf for example)
