- Cross-platform · Desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux with automatic dark/light theme
- Recoverable · Files go to system trash by default, not permanent deletion
- Wine and Proton · Games installed through Wine, Proton, Bottles, Lutris, and other compatibility layers are scanned too
- Game files · Known game files are never touched
- Symlinks · Symlinks and junction points are never followed or deleted through
- Leftovers · Folders of uninstalled games may hold saves, so the confirmation says in red how many of them are selected. Each is checked against Steam's manifests again right before it is deleted
