Perplexity 26.9.1 keeps the secret vault and device identity in ~/.local/state/perplexity and its runtime downloads in ~/.local/share/perplexity-rpc-server; the remover knew neither path, so it deleted the logins unconditionally while leaving the credentials behind. Now the runtime and Electron caches always go, and the logins, vault, and launcher flags go only on an explicit yes at a terminal, default no, the same choice Remove OpenClaw puts in front of the user. The prompt needs stderr on the terminal too: gum draws it there, so a redirected stderr means keeping the data, not blocking on a question nobody can see.
