[SOLVED] protontricks --gui: Cannot find path after deleting folder

Hello,

I use protontricks pretty hardcore, to the point where tinkering is simply a daily fact of the matter to me. Recently, I decided to do some cleanup and move my secondary steam directory. I deleted it to put it in a much easier spot for my sanity.

Now, whenever I try and tinker a with protontricks, I see this error message pop up telling me that it cannot find the folder path that I know I have deleted:

user@Arch ~> protontricks --gui
protontricks (WARNING): Steam library folder /run/media/user/Secondary Drive/Games/Steam Library 2 not found. Protontricks might not have access to the directory.

I would like to remove this error, but I don't know what this particular program is seeing nor do I know how to 'reset' it to where I first got it. There's no config files as far as I know, unless I'm mistaking? Can someone please tell me how to reset protontricks?

EDIT: I fixed this by completely removing steam and reinstalling it.
