Not to mention, the ability to share games with your friends and family is pretty awesome too. By default, Steam uses the default install directory. The problem with this is that most Windows users will not have enough space in the C drive to install multiple games. Thankfully, Steam offers a simple solution. You can change the game download and install location in Steam. Simple as that. Fingers crossed that will do the job. Originally posted by C. Shana View Post. I should just be able to redirect the dir to my new drive.
Havoc Lamperouge. I came here looking for a way to install the Epic Games Launcher on a custom folder.
I'm so frustrated with this. The launcher is installed on D drive but it still tries to download the game in C drive where there isn't enough space. The download doesn't even start.

Steam always downloads updates on the drive that the game is installed on, unless there isn't enough free space on that drive for the temporary files Steam needs to construct during the update, in which case it will use whatever space is available.
If you make more space on the good hard drive, the update should start to download there if you make enough. Do you have enough space on the good drive? I remember Valve updated Steam to let game updates go to the next Steam folder if you don't have enough space for the update on the current installation drive.

However the working drive had about 50gb gb SSD free, but for some reason it kept downloading to the faulty bigger drive 3TB regular HD.
Managed to work around it, since removing a steam library folder required you to empty the folder. With the HD being faulty deleting all the content would take hours or more. Closing steam and renaming the library folder on the faulty hd was a quick workaround to removing that folder from steam. Same problem here, though I am having difficulty figuring out how much space is needed by steam for the update to be installed, im currently trying to fill up the faulty drives with useless stuff so that steam is "forced" to try on another drive I have discovered a problem where if you have MOVED the folder, the updates will still acumulate in the old install paths' Steam Library drive location.
Simply copy the data folder, uninstall, then re-install after moving the folder back. From there, you should see the config. Alternatively, just delete the Plutonium folder altogether and try installing it through the plutonium. RaVeNN thank you this fixed it. Register Login. Wrong folder setup: how can I fix it properly?
