How Do I Completely Remove A Docker Container And All Dependencies? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I’m using tessypowder/backblaze-personal-wine, and I need to reinstall it due to some drive changes. I have tried docker rm [container ID], but when I add the container again, it seems to be stuck with the old wine settings. I have also tried adding it with a new name so it would theoretically be a totally new container, but that also seemed to inherit the broken wine settings.

I noticed that when I first install a container, there is a long ID string that seems to represent the container along with all the dependencies, but when I use docker ps, it only shows me a shorter string that seems to represent Backblaze alone. Should I be using rm with the longer string to remove wine too? If so, how can I get the terminal to display the full ID again so I can accomplish a full removal?

tl;dr How can I do a full removal of a docker container an all sub-programs (such as wine) that were installed along with it?

If you want to clear out any stopped containers, orphaned images, networks, etc run "docker system prune"

What I think is happening is there is a persistent volume mount that needs to be cleared out. If you're using the docker run command with a -v flag, check the host path. It's likely there are saved configurations you're passing into the container.
