I’m trying to free up some space on my device and I’ve come across something called Ubuntu12_64. I couldn’t find any information about it online, so I’m hoping someone here can help explain what it is and if it’s safe to remove it.

It’s actually the operating system for the Steam Deck. If you’re looking to free up space, I wouldn’t go deleting system files like that. Instead, consider getting a microSD card or uninstalling games to clear up space safely.
Ubuntu12_64 is part of the runtime for certain Linux applications. It’s used by some Linux-based games and other applications you might have installed. So, it’s advisable not to delete it unless you’re confident it won’t affect your software.
Got it! So it’s important for some games I might play? Thanks for clarifying!
Makes sense! I guess I’ve been downloading some other stuff too, like emulators. Just trying to get a grip on what’s taking up all the space!
