First off, you're gonna want to connect your Steam Deck to your PC. You can do this either by using a USB-C cable or through your local network. If you're going the USB-C route, it's pretty much plug and play—just treat the Steam Deck like any external drive and drag those files over. For network sharing, make sure both devices are on the same network, share the specific folder from your PC, and access it through the Steam Deck's file manager.

FTP is your friend here. Set up an FTP server on your PC and connect to it with an FTP client on your Steam Deck. It's a bit techie, but it's super flexible and lets you transfer files without needing to physically connect the devices. Just be sure to secure your FTP connection to keep your files safe.
