On Proton 7.0-3 after uninstalling game that used Proton (runs using Steam Play) directory steam/steamapps/compatdata/{GAME_ID} is not deleted. While most files are deleted, directory is left with few files in /pfx/dosdevices/ - z:, c:, d: and d::. This issue is recurring with most games I play using Proton, and could been in earlier Proton versions too.
