I don't wait for download make game run and it's ok. If I wait not matter next time it downloads again

Also I always skip shader optimiztions, couse it repeats too.

Can I just disable it becose I can play anyway.

Hello @nleo, you can control Steam's Shader Pre-Caching behavior at Steam -> Settings -> Shader Pre-Caching.
