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?

Not really afaik, you can make file immutable with chattr +i /path/to/something but that means you cannot write to it either, which will probably cause problems.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
