If you uninstall this application again it means you will NOT lose any settings, hence why they are not deleted (same happens in Linux - which means I can re-install the whole OS and re-install the applications and all my settings are saved!). If you want to delete it just remove it using the command line, like this:

Code:
cd MyDocs
rm -rf .toMotko
You don't want the "cd MyDocs" there - dot files/directories are stored in the /home/user directory.
