Hello @caizixian, there's no point in tracking this separately. Closing as a duplicate.

Ccaizixian 2026-07-23 github

@kisak-valve I think if there is going to be a more general fix for issues like this, then let's have an umbrella tracking issue. But if they require ad-hoc fixing of depots, then it might make sense to track this per game. I'm happy to let you make the call on how to best track this.

Ccaizixian 2026-07-23 github

It might make sense to update the title of #13406 if it's going to be used as a tracking issue.
