Have you read a contributing guide?

  • I have read CONTRIBUTING.md
  • I have searched the existing issues and didn't find any that were similar
  • I have considered creating a pull request with fixes instead of a bug report and want to proceed

Current Behavior

The anytype software was deleted and reinstalled.
failed to run node can't init service 'common.accountservice': failed to read device keyfile: open C:\Users\…………\AppData\Roaming\anytype\data\……………………\device.key: The system cannot find the file specified.

Expected Behavior

Find the original files and data with the recovery phrase

Steps To Reproduce

Uninstall the software, reinstall and log in to the software.

Environment

- OS:Windows10

Anything else?

I found that in the course of normal use
C:\Users\……\AppData\Roaming\anytype\data\……
Under the folder, there was a file called device.key, but when I uninstalled the software, it disappeared.

I'm not sure if this is a misunderstanding of my ability to recover and find my data.

I was looking forward to more user-friendly(Especially for non-professionals) backup, sync, and restore, as well as custom folders (I knew this was in the plans, but I was surprised by this, because this is supposed to be the most basic and important feature, and for local first software, having a solid understanding of where files are stored and how to save, back up, and sync them is the most important),
