I’m looking to try out Linux, but I don’t want to have to re install all my games for it. I’ve got a 500 GB boot drive, and a 2tb where all my games are. I’d install Linux on a 250 GB partition of the boot drive. ty all :)

      If they don’t have cloud sync, yes. But most games have that nowadays, so it should be fine. Just make sure not to delete proton prefixes (which are what you call wines C drive) if they contain saves. I lost my borderlands 2 progress that way.

          I’ve heard people say you shouldn’t do this but I often just symlink the saves folder of games into the steam compatdata folder
