How to move Steam games to another drive

To move a Steam game to another drive, you need to first create a second steam library folder on the other drive.

Follow the steps below to create a new library folder and move existing games to it.

• Open Steam
• Go to Settings and click on Steam Library Folders button under the Downloads tab
