Change default steam download directory


















That will be the new default folder for any installed games. Last edited by eram ; 3 Jan, am. Ok well thats odd. I was just giving this option a quick test and every new game i click to start an install goes to the new location.

It's not for me. I dunno what's going on tbh but since I rarely remember to change locations before downnloading, I could really do with it being the default. Maybe if I restart Steam it'll work. Yeah could try a restart, also, Did you try the steam beta at all? The new options look like this. I can add installation folders, but it always defaults to the steam install directory. I think it'd be great to be able to chose the default installation folder Originally posted by schyzm :.

Creating a new Steam game folder is arguably a better way to move games to other locations. The process is built into Steam and means you can add games wherever you want.

Once you have multiple folders, you can move games between them. If you have added an extra drive to fit more games, you can add your new folder to the new drive and move games between them. If you add a new drive to your system, rather than moving games, extend the volume to include the existing game drive and the new one.

You can do this multiple times, and it is a straightforward way to manage disk space. How can I find Steam game folders? Can I move Steam games to another drive?

If you have these questions, please read this post, in which MiniTool Partition Wizard shows you how to find Steam game folders and then move them to another drive. Where does steam install games? For those who are not familiar with Steam, this may be a question. They don't know where Steam installs games and how to move the Steam installation and games to another location.

During the installation of Steam, you have the option to install Steam to a location other than the default.
