Wrong...:-)

Schnabel only recorded the complete Beethoven sonatas once - this was
the 1930s and the set was initially by subscription only.  He rerecorded
Opp. 109 and 111 in 1942 for RCA and also the 4th and 5th piano concertos
(Chicago SO/Stock).  Generally his earlier recordings of both (HMV)
were/are ore highly regarded.

Schnabel never AFAIK recorded anything for Decca.
