Storage not Freeing After Deleting From Certain Sources?
Ok, this has been an issue with the pre-installed version of Steam on Bazzite from what I can tell, I tried finding a solution online, but so far I've come up dry might have missed something, but this issue is exclusive to the Bazzite Distro
regardless this has just recently become a problem that I cannot ignore, so let me start.
I had 191.4gb of storage free storage space on my 2tb SSD, and I decided to delete Marvel Rivals, which Steam said took up 61GB, and Filelight was saying it took up 59gb, so maybe shader compilation made up the mismatch IDK, regardless after deleting Marvel Rivals which was instant, consisted of clicking the uninstall button, and DONE, and through me off, I then went to check the storage location in based on Filelight it wasn't there, Marvel Rivals from all intents, and purposes seemed deleted with no storage return to speak of like a magicians trick, I closed, and re-opened steam as I heard it could reserve that space, and only got 4gb back, but not the 59gb I expected. and I don't know where that space went to, the either I guess? IDK, but it's incredibly frustrating, and is the only thing making Bazzite a headache since I started using it Jan 7th, this has happened with every Steam install, and makes me terrified of what's happening here, and how long before I no longer have Space to work with.
