How to uninstall this command ? ```
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/denis-g/steam-deck-optimization-guide/master/scripts/steamos_optimization.sh | sh.


Because I need to uninstall it on my Steam Deck because there is better than this command of A.B.T

I think you may be misunderstanding what the command did. This command basically downloaded a shell script with curl, then ran it with sh. If you’re familiar with Windows this is equivalent to downloading and running a Batch or PowerShell script.

EDIT: someone else has posted the shell script you ran. You essentially need to manually undo whatever is in the script in the terminal.

Now, I'm hesitating to remove all the scripts from A.B.T because it's not the same as Cryo Utilities and SDWeak. I found out how to remove the scripts in a blog by A.B.T. Why did I want to remove the scripts from A.B.T.? Because I saw the instructions from SDWeak saying "Before installation, be sure to remove Cryo Utilities if it was previously installed.". Will it be the same case as the A.B.T. scripts? Will there be any issues if I install SDWeak?

If I’m understanding this right, you have run the script linked and also installed CryoUtilities separately?

In that case, I’d run A.B.T’s “revert” script in the Medium post (looks reasonable at a glance?), and uninstall CryoUtilities using the instructions on their GitHub.

I think you would definitely want to have CryoUtilities uninstalled before SDWEAK, since ananicy-cpp would probably conflict. But I would highly recommend backups before running arbitrary commands on your deck 😅

Yes, I ran the A.B.T. script by denis-g but did not install Cryo Utilities

Explain to me why I should do a ‘revert’ by A.B.T in the Medium post if I want to install SDWeak ?

What is "ananicy-cpp" ?
