Notes

  • Ensure the browser is closed before removal, or deletion may fail
  • Removal requires a second confirmation to prevent accidents
  • In default mode (without -f or -s), pbvm will ask whether you also want to remove the Store cache
  • remove does not support targeting browsers by alias; use browser@buildId
