  • I have searched for similar suggestions and have not found a duplicate.
  • This is an improvement to an existing feature (not a new feature request).

Describe your suggestion

I find the behavior of the 'Software & Apps' section counterintuitive, especially when using an imported config file.
Wouldn't it be much more logical to have 3 options next to every software or app:
'install', 'uninstall', or 'do nothing' (default), followed by a global 'apply changes' button?

Current behavior

Right now, when importing a config file, the system knows which apps should be installed, but it doesn't know which ones I want to uninstall.

Proposed behavior

Allowing users to choose an action for each app or software ('install', 'uninstall', or 'do nothing') would make this section far more versatile when working with config files.

Benefit

It would provide a much easier way to deploy configs across different machines.
