ES File Explorer: Delete Files on Uninstall

Slightly off topic question. I remember someone mentioned, a few months ago, that either ES File Explorer or X-plore had a setting or some functionality where, when you removed an app from your phone, it would sometimes ask if you wanted it to delete any extraneous files. I reset my phone a week or two ago, & now I'm not getting asked this when I remove apps, but I can't remember which of the two apps had this functionality, or if it's a setting within whichever app that I need to turn on.

Anyone know? I have both of these on my phone but don't know where to look because I don't remember which app it was, & can't find the post that mentioned it a while back.

For example,I've seen when deleting Antutu Benchmark,it will ask if you want the files deleted or not.
