# Your Library and storage

Source: https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/library/ · Updated 2026-11-15

**For Orbit Store 0.0.2 for PS4.** Library is in the TV app, the browser and [Orbit Zero](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/orbit-zero/) on a computer paired with the PS4. All three show the same PS4 games and drives. Store, Crossbar, Cinema and Panorama show it in different layouts; changing [appearance](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/appearance/) doesn’t change which games are installed.

Library shows the games installed on your PS4. Orbit reads them from the console itself; you don’t need ShadowMount or any other tool. It works independently of your download-source choices.

## Understand the labels

- **Installed:** the game is installed on the PS4.
- **On drive:** the game’s files are on that drive.

Search by title, title ID or path, and filter by status, location or format.

## Downloads and Library

Library shows installed games, while Browse uses Orbit’s download catalogue. A finished download is a saved file, not an installed game. Choose **Install on PS4** on the download to install it; it then appears in Library. See [installing games](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/install-games/).

To find a finished download’s file, open **Downloads → Finished → Location** in the TV app or the browser. That saved path is separate from Library. In Orbit Zero, a download’s **Location** shows where it was saved on the PS4; for a download kept on the computer, use **Show in folder**.

## DLC and installed games

The **Add-ons** page is a separate collection. Finding the base game in Library doesn’t mark its DLC as installed or confirm that an add-on matches its edition or version. Check the add-on’s requirements and its own installation status in Downloads. See [the DLC guide](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/add-ons/).

## Automatic updates

Library and drive information refresh by themselves. Game sizes show **Measuring…** until they’re known. After an installation, or when a drive is connected, Orbit reads the installed games again; **Looking for new games…** shows while it does. **Try again** appears if the list can’t be read. **Scan for games** stays available as a manual fallback.

## Manage storage

Open **Library → Files** to check free space and manage files and folders on internal storage and USB drives. Select a folder to open it; Circle goes back one folder. See the [Files guide](https://orbitstore.dev/guides/ps4/files/).

Orbit doesn’t start, uninstall, copy or move installed games. Uninstall games from the PS4 home screen. Downloads and Library are separate: a finished download isn’t a promise that the game is installed or ready to play.
