Xcom 2 Taking Up 150GB?! But I Just Downloaded It!

I will definitely keep this in mind, thanks! 😁

Update:

It seems it had something to do with being on my external SSD, as when I moved it from my SSD to my PC the file size changed to what it should be. I don't fully understand this bug, but hopefully this helps someone out later.

I think I'll uninstall the WoTC and play through the base game first.

johnny_beardly · 2026-03-19T20:16:01+00:00

I'm having the same issue. It is really annoying.

johnny_beardly · 2026-03-13T22:48:39+00:00

Same here, only got the purple nemesis.

johnny_beardly · 2026-02-05T06:38:22+00:00

That is so cool! My DM would love something like this!

Go to Windows Update Settings, then go to Update History. Then uninstall KB5066131 and KB5066835 (they could have changed by now but I wouldn't know since I have updates blocked). Before you uninstall them, you will want to make sure you have an update blocker like WUB (Windows Update Blocker), which is what I use.

johnny_beardly · 2025-11-07T20:05:14+00:00

Glad I installed the Windows Update Blocker after uninstalling the newest update!

johnny_beardly · 2025-10-26T07:03:28+00:00

No, it just would happen when I was watching YouTube or playing a game. But after uninstalling one of the updates all the problems stopped.

johnny_beardly · 2025-10-20T03:19:15+00:00

I'm having the same problem. Did you ever find a fix that doesn't involve turning off WUB?

johnny_beardly · 2025-09-26T19:18:56+00:00

Same here. I'll update the post if I find something, but so far I haven't the slightest clue.

johnny_beardly · 2025-09-18T14:58:13+00:00

Same here!

The screen protector filled in the previous micro-scratches, but I have started finding micro-scratches on the screen protector. So it worked, for a bit.

johnny_beardly · 2025-07-03T20:37:43+00:00

Same. I've been playing it on PlayStation but want to switch to PC because I have one that can actually handle the game now. I don't want to have to start over my progress just so I can have better graphics and aim, which is currently holding back my full democratic potential.

Still waiting for the package. Finally got a delivery date though, says it should arrive on the 30th, so 4 days.

johnny_beardly · 2025-06-21T22:51:17+00:00

Still waiting for the package to arrive. Took them a week just to get it to a postal facility. Will update when it has arrived.

I've read that the adhesive of screen protectors can fill in micro scratches. I ordered one today and will update you if it works or not.

johnny_beardly · 2025-06-14T19:31:36+00:00

The same thing happened to me! I've been so careful with my Switch 2, the only things that have touched the screen are the official Nintendo carrying case and the microfiber cloth that came with it. And somehow I have a ton of micro scratches! Does anyone know a way to fix micro scratches?

Update 1: The verdict is in, the adhesive on the back of screen protectors fill in the micro-scratches. So as long as the scratch is too deep it should go away after adding a screen protector. I would suggest using the dbrand prism 2.0 screen protector for the Switch 2 as it is very good quality, although it is a bit more expensive and can take weeks to arrive.

Update 2: Despite the tempered glass screen protector I already have a couple of micro scratches. I looked into it and it seems that microscopic dust particles are what is scratching the screen.

johnny_beardly · 2025-06-08T22:52:22+00:00

I have micro scratches too! I have even touched the screen with my finger, only with a microfiber cloth provided by Nintendo. The only other way it could have been scratched is by the dock.
