How to Move Steam Games to Another Drive
Starting off, it's pretty simple! Open your Steam client and go to 'Settings' > 'Downloads' > 'Steam Library Folders'. From here, you can add a new library folder on your desired drive. Next up, right-click the game you want to move in your library, select 'Properties,' head over to the 'Local Files' tab, and click 'Move Install Folder.' Then, just choose the new location and let Steam do its magic!

Just drag and drop the folder, right? WRONG. You gotta do it the Steam way to avoid messing things up. Add a new library folder in a different drive through Steam settings, then use the 'Move Install Folder' option for your games. Keeps everything smooth and saves you a headache.
Did this last week, super easy. Steam's 'Move Install Folder' feature is a lifesaver. No need to redownload anything, and it keeps all your game saves and settings intact. Just make sure the new drive has enough space.
Nah, too much work. I just uninstall and reinstall the game to the new drive. Easy.
