@obsidian shadow it's not my post that have broken image links. It's steam that is broken. You since last year. More info here: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/discussions/forum/0/2801754975102177422/

If you want to see the image in full size, click the image, then a popup will appear with a message "broken page" or something. Then in the top of this popup, you can click the link and it will open the image in a new tab in your browser.

Thank you for writing this guide and answering my question.

Thank you for explaining the rm command

Can you also explain the ln -s , what does it do?

And if it's not too much trouble could you explain the thought process and reasoning that led you to this solution. How did you work it out?

Also the images in your guide cannot be expanded, it says "invalid URL"
It would be easier for new Linux adopters to better see the terminal images if you can make them clickable and expandable.
I have a feeling that the double whammy of Win10 followed by Win11 will bring quite a few new people to Linux. Some will undoubtedly be fans of Warlock.

Best regards.

@obsidian shadow

-r remove directories and their contents recursively
-f ignore nonexistent files and arguments, never prompt

The command "rm -rf home" will delete the folder called "home", make sure you are inside the folder! (if you follow my instructions, you should be good).

By the way, if you want more information you can execute this comand "rm --help" or "man rm"

I an very new to Linux.
Could you explain those terminal commands?
I know rm removes a folder, not sure about -rf argument and a bit worried about removing the home folder...
I'm not familiar with the ln command and it's parameters.

I have successfully played some games like planetfall and endless space on PoP OS Linux using Steam Proton and look forward to migrating most of my computing and gaming to Linux in the next few years.
