Hey all
9.0 pro here with an internal 2TB ssd and an external 5TB USB.
Install games just fine with goldhen and everything works perfectly but I have a storage issue driving me nuts.
It says I have 200gb free on my internal but whenever I try to move ANYTHING from the external to the internal it says i do not have enough space. Its so weird. I can select like a 1.2GB game and when I select it, it says "moveable size" is something like 78GB.
WTF is going on here? Again, all games play and work just fine.
I heard rebuilding the database could maybe fix this but I also heard that will remove all my folders which took hours to organize.

There's a way to get sorting back, but unfortunately, it's the same file that's causing that wrong file size problem.
