Already implemented Applications and Wizards

[FangerZero]

I wanted a password manager so I'm trying out vaultwarden, I seem to have it setup but trying to figure out the security thing so I don't always see it pop up is beyond me. Which got me thinking if HexOS were to add this to their list of "approved" apps would there be a method to essentially rerun the "wizard" to change the settings but have it auto fill the wizard with what you already have?

Would restating your question like "can installation wizards pre-populate fields with cached input data such that if re-run, the user would only need to change specific fields and not all required fields?" Is that what you're asking?

Can you even reinstall an already installed app? Does Hexos allow you to do this?

Do you mean if an app was installed via Truenas and it becomes a Hexos curated App that it is prefilling all the fields based on the current installation or if the App was installed via Hexos and you want to reinstall or both?

Yup... Yeah I've never been good at getting words across.

I think I get what the ask is here. If I do frequent (un)installation of apps, then tracking "what IP did I assign" or any other fields that a wizard might prompt for, if they are pre-populated with my prior entries then there is less chance for me inputting different data.

@FangerZero - I actually think this is a good idea as it would reduce app re-installation errors. I'd bubble this request back up once we see get a little further down the line.
