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?

Thanks for your input! This is defo something i do need to learn from indeed. This happened on a pretty fresh install too, the only program linked to that specific folder/path, was Bottles, as I need it for running the executeable for the game. No addtional drives or mounts (other than what Bottles is responsible for). However I would still like to be able to "lock" folders just to prevent my own sillyness from deleting it again.

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.
