I would love for a native way to manage runtime installs for both steam and non-steam games. My homedir has very little space left and I have no idea what random runtime environments I can delete… (Previously installed games no longer installed)

On your library, if you tell it to show you Software instead of games and mark the “Only installed” option, it shows you what Runtimes and Proton versions are installed IIRC

So when you remove a non-steam game it also removes the runtime files? They are like 200-400mb each and I prefer to purchase games from places like GOG and others. But it’s easier to manage via steam.

It removes the proton prefix that was used to run the game, now the runtimes themselves stay, I believe

Is there any Linux friendly way to figure out which runtime belongs to which game? I tried some random script but it sort of failed to identify the games. I am kinda looking at something like executable path as then I am can least delete this stuff normally
