Are you creating the volumes with the stack or are you creating the volumes outside the stack and referencing them in the stack? if you're using named volumes that the stack is creating, then this is actually likely correct behavior as removing/deleting a stack should delete anything that it created as well.

Im creating the volumes with the stack.
Or its just mappings, to location on the disk, but the stack create all the folders. My mappings are like "./dockage/stacks/stack-name"

When a stack is deleted, the "stack-name" folder gets deleted.

[mizady]

ah yes so that's because deleting the stack in dockge would be the stack, which is everything in the folder. so really we need a pop up that has a check box on whether to delete the folder as well. I'll see if i can throw something together in the next day or two, but keep in mind that the author of this project is busy and has not been approving very many pull requests so even if I throw the code up in a pull request it maybe some time before it makes it live.

Thanks :-)
Cant ask for more.
I feel this will benefit more than just me.

I had the same request in this post #405 .
It coud be better to have check box to let user deside to delete only compose.yml and .env files or whole stack folder with data.

Something like this:
