  • When you normally delete a file, it doesn’t actually delete it, to save time it just marks the space as free, so any new files can be written into that part of your drive.

    But the actual data just remains there until a new file is written to the storage.

    SecureErase does the second part without making an actual file.

    Normal delete:

    File: 01010101 -> no file:01010101

    Secure erase:

    File: 01010101 -> no file:00000000














  • I assume you’re talking about Diablo 4 (please actually type out the game, it makes it easier for people to help and makes it easier for people with issues to find solutions)

    Is there a crash log?

    Looking at https://www.protondb.com/app/2344520, there’s a couple things suggested:

    Using proton ge instead of normal proton

    Install via lutris instead of steam.

    Use PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=1 %command% as the launch options. This tricks the game into thinking you have an amd gpu and disables nvdia specific optimizations that could maybe cause issues.

    %command% -adapter 1 might switch to the gpu if you’re on a laptop with integrated and dedicated graphics.
