Your Windows and Linux partition can share drives for games if you want to save space. You may run into permission issues sometimes but they’re easy to solve.
The Linux partition can even load games from Windows OS partition.
@CarlosCheddar @Written2323 Important, if you share partitions with win und linux: disable fast boot on Windows or else Linux won't be able to access that partition.
This worked for me until recently. Since a windows update my drive has been completely locked despite disabled fast boot. I am currently struggling to find solutions to unlock it again but nothing works…
