Bear with me, I only just made the move from Windows. I have two partitions on my drive, one small with all the OS files and such, and one large to be used for storage and installing games and such. I’ve made sure to take ownership of this partition and all that to make I don’t need root access to it. I set this up yesterday, and today I found that Steam did not find the storage partition. I had to go into the Steam settings to point out the drive. Can I change things so I don’t have to do that every time I boot up my PC?
Unlikely if you’re running Mint, it doesn’t install snap by default or even offer it as an option. And before you ask, no I don’t recommend you install it.
You’ll have either a native or flatpack install of steam
He won’t be able to access external if he uses flatpak if I am not mistaken.
