Hi there, I’m on Bazzite KDE and recently somehow lost a my “gaming” folder…? No idea how but must gave been user faulty, e.g me. Therefore wondering if it’s possible to lock certain folders so that this cannot accidentally happen?

    Sure, regular file permissions can do that. You may need to make the folder owner someone else, and set the sticky bit.

      Yeah actually this was more simple thanI had imagined, I simply changed it so that the owner(me) can only view the folder and not edit. Which totally works in my use case. Thought it would have been more difficult than just changing this tbh, thanks!
