I am not sure if this would count as a bug report or a feature, but I will say it here.
All Minecraft worlds for Bedrock get deleted upon the game itself being deleted. I don't know if this is intentional, but it is disastrous. My game tried to update but instead uninstalled itself, which ended up deleting every world with it, not even data recovery software could find any of the worlds. Can worlds just not stay on the PC, separate from the game? The current way it happens is so bad that mistakes are very dangerous and cause major losses in worlds.
And someone might say that I should have backed up my worlds before updating, but it's really tedious to do that considering how often the games update, and the file size of backups is just very big.

MS Store and Launcher (Launcher first), however the Launcher itself could not update it, although it did not affect my data/game.
