Yep, you can delete the shader cache on your Steam Deck. Just dive into the Steam settings, find the 'Shader Pre-Caching' option, and you'll get the choice to clear it out. Remember, shader caches help games run smoother, so after clearing, you might notice a game takes longer to load the first time you play.
Absolutely, deleting the shader cache on the Steam Deck is doable, but often not recommended unless you're troubleshooting specific issues. Games use these caches to load faster, so clear them out only if you need to.
