How to delete Steam games in Linux? (lemmy.ml)

I can't delete any games because nothing happens when I try to either delete the game or manage game files.

I tried to reboot and waited for game updates but no success. Is this a known issue or what?

steam's cache of installed/downloaded/updates to games can get corrupted and cause this. try the 'clear download cache' option in settings and then restart steam and try to uninstall a game again.

Thanks for the tip. I managed to delete the game by opening /settings/storage and do the work from there.
