So when i got RF2 ON STEAM it went onto my c: drive, that getting full and would like it on my d: drive as loads of space... so i tried to move files via steam but then game does not work.. So can i uninstall RF2 and re install on d: drive without having to purchase again? Is that possible or any other tips? cheers.
You can uninstall any game on steam and it will still remain in your library. I would just uninstall by right clicking it in the steam library, then reinstall it and change the location to the D drive. Unsure if there's an easier way.
What he said. I had to shift FSX and Arma 3 across for this reason. No need to uninstall, it just moves it as if you would drag and drop it.
I don’t get the option ‘ move install folder “ or am l missing something ? EDIT : used a programme called ' Steam Mover '. easy peazy, job done
1 - Move your C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ folder that contains your games to a new folder 'Steam' i.e. D:\Steam 2 - Copy Steam.exe from C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\ 3 - Paste Steam.exe in D:\Steam\ 4 - Open D:\Steam\Steam.exe 5 - Let it install remaining files 6 - Viola moved and games are now run from D:\Steam\Common\ I have a similar setup for Games I have on a backup drive that when I want to play them just plug in the backup drive and launch Steam.exe from there
@Bringmetheapex&bwana -The method Coutie & AMillard suggest, is the easiest process, baked into Steam. Open Steam>Library>Games>rFactor2(right click for dropdown menu)>Properties>Local Files>Browse Local Files- choose what drive to move to>Verify files That's the most efficient way I've discovered. Perhaps the "in process?" Manual will clarify/verify?
Likewise. These step needs to be completed before the option becomes available: Navigate to your Steam client 'Settings' menu. Select 'Steam Library Folders' from the 'Downloads' tab. From here, you can view your default installation path, as well as creating a new path by selecting 'Add Library Folder'. Once you have created the new path, all future installations can be installed there (you can right-click on one of the paths to set it as a default).
