Is your "other" storage folder out of control? You probably have megabytes if not gigabytes of leftover files that can be pruned to restore a lot of space on your internal storage drive.

In this video, we'll show you how to use Scawp's amazingly powerful Steam Deck Shader Cache Killer to recover that space. Since this can be dangerous, not only will I help arm you with this tool - I'm also going to show you how to use it safely.

permanent loss of data if done improperly.
