How to keep an offline game library tidy

If you download a lot of offline games, your storage fills up fast. A little housekeeping keeps the good stuff playable.

Check each game's real footprint, not just the install size. Some add gigabytes of cached data after a few sessions.

Rotate your library like a reading list. Keep three or four active games, archive the rest, and reinstall when the mood strikes. Most save their progress to your account or local cloud anyway.

Finally, back up save files when a game lets you export them. Nothing stings like losing a 40-hour RPG run to a factory reset.
