So it might be a non MacOS app. Maybe a streaming game file. Or something you deleted but wasn't completely removed.

Also, please make your post titles more descriptive in the future.

I found this:

Deleted files still appearing in storage under "APPS_OTHER

I just downloaded that app from steam, when I check it it says APP OTHER instead is Intel or Universal.

That's the explanation then. I guess some Steam games just say that. Nothing to worry about.

Since you started the thread, you can STILL rename it to something more descriptive.
Just so it's useful for others in the future.....😉
