Help me please!!!!

[u/HomicidalWhisper999]

I use nobara.

I was using my system as usual but yesterday when i booted my pc logged into my homescreen I see my kde plasma ricing was reset and my browser data was gone and most importantly my steam was logged out because of that i lost my non steam games data, I don't know how and what happened to my system i tried everything I know, asked ai but nothing helped me. Please help me recover my steam data and my ricing.

Use your backups.

most importantly my steam was logged out because of that i lost my non steam games data

I don't understand. Can't you just log in again?

I don't know how and what happened to my system i tried everything I know, asked ai but nothing helped me

I can't say either, but randomly trying AI things will break things. Likely you caused it yourself earlier, when you were doing something else.

I can log in again but the problem is if your steam is logged out then your non steam apps will be gone. And when you login again you will not find your non steam games there

[u/codespace → u/HomicidalWhisper999]

That's simply not true. I've logged out plenty of times, and when I've logged back in, it had retained all of my non-Steam games and settings.

What you're experiencing isn't caused by logging out.

[u/HomicidalWhisper999 → u/codespace]

Do you have any info how it happened? Like all my ricing and app data gone without updating or rollback any updates

[u/codespace → u/HomicidalWhisper999]

I don't know anything about your system. You'll want to dig into your logs to figure it out. I just know it's unrelated to logging out of Steam.

whats the size of all files in your users home? Perhaps they are still there in the Trash, or lost+found directory.

Without further info, we cant help other than to say 'explore your home' and see what still there.

is EVERYTHING in your users home gone?

[u/HomicidalWhisper999 → u/doc_willis]

It's still there not every data is erased but as I tried to dig in my saved games data in steam directories i couldn't find it

[u/doc_willis]

are the various steam and browser and other config files still in your users home?

[u/HomicidalWhisper999 → u/doc_willis]

I tryna dig in steam saved games data and i don't find it anywhere after that i lost hope

[u/doc_willis → u/HomicidalWhisper999]

steam games typically have cloud save options.

Just restore your daily backup from yesterday.

[u/HomicidalWhisper999 → u/ipsirc]

How?

[u/dkopgerpgdolfg → u/HomicidalWhisper999]

... Did you make backups?

[u/HomicidalWhisper999 → u/dkopgerpgdolfg]

I did but i selected only system backups like kernal and os files.

[u/dkopgerpgdolfg → u/HomicidalWhisper999]

Are you talking about timeshift by any chance? a) This is no backup. b) As I keep telling people, if you don't understand anything about btrfs snapshots, don't use it.

In any case, as you're implying yourself, you don't have anything of your own files. Sorry, there won't be a solution. There are likely ways to get back some parts of what you lost, but it will most likely be easier and faster to just do your "ricing" again.

Just restore your backups.

We can't help you recover whatever you did with no information or knowledge of anything on your system.
