I used to have pretty much constant shader updates until I changed the automatic update time range to somewhere out of the way (like 6-7AM), and I haven’t seen anywhere near as many of them even when I look manually in the downloads menu, so might be worth a try if you haven’t already.
Doesn’t the device have to be on though? I put mine to sleep and every time I wake it up, it has shader cache updates for roughly 3-5 games and I have to wait 15-20 mins unless I manually cancel each update. Especially because I don’t have a chance to play every day, I’m usually only able to jump on once a week.
Actually I’m not sure if disabling auto update completely would have the same effect as limiting the auto update time, but the point is to NOT have Steam automatically update because that’s the broken bit as far as shader cache updates go for whatever reason.
At least, that’s what I think the problem is, I’ve never actually tried letting it actually run automatic updates by itself anymore lol.
