Having an SSD drive is best, but they have a shorter life than most normal hard drives. For this reason, it is interesting to have a configuration on our PC in which we have the OS installed on SSD hard drive plus the programs we use the most, and on the other hand we have games and other applications on a normal hard drive. From this dynamic, a lot of work is downloaded to the SSD and its life is lengthened.
Es por esto que es interesante cambiar dónde están instalados todos los videojuegos que tenemos en Steam, puesto que, por defecto, los llevan a un root directory C. Por lo tanto te vamos a enseñar cómo change location where the video games that you install from this platform that is so interesting for all types of video games will begin to be installed, which is one of the greatest advantages of having a computer.
How to change the location where Steam games are installed on your PC
- Click on the menu "Steam" in the upper left
- We select «Parameters» and the window with all the settings will open
- We look for the tab "Downloads" and we click on it
- Now we click on "Steam Library Folders"
- In the pop-up window, click "Add library folder"
- We click on the top bar to choose the hard drive where we want to create the folder where all the games will be installed
- Now we click on "Create folder"
- In the created folder we right click and select it "Convert to default folder"
You will be ready for everything video games that you are installing go to that new folder created on the hard drive prepared for this. It won't move the games you have installed, but it will work for the new ones you install from now on.
