Caution note Caution:

This method irrevocably removes the entire isolated storage for the current users's application and all its directories and files.

If any of the directories or files in the store are in use, the removal attempt for the store fails. Any subsequent attempts to modify the store throw an IsolatedStorageException exception. In this case, you must ensure that the files or directories are explicitly deleted.
