Hi, My 1 Tb Samsung Evo SSD is almost out of space. Most of what takes up space on my drive are games downloaded from my Steam account.So I went ahead and deleted a number of games, by bringing up my Steam account and using "delete local content", to free up space for some new games that I purchased on Cyber Monday that would like to download to my SSD. Deleting the games using Steam has no effect on clearing up space on my SSD. I read one solution of deleting Steam and starting from scratch, but that seems ridiculous to have to do it that way. There would be way too much to have to reinstall plus I would lose where I am in some games that cannot be synchronized. (I play the same game on two different gaming computers in two different places....not at the same time of course.)  I could go directly to the Steam folders and delete them. There are two folders in two different places, for each game where the game content is kept. But I am worried about screwing up Steam by doing this more direct method. Is this a possibility? Please Help. Thanks! for more you can check: References: www.techrepublic.com/forums/Corporate Advertising |

I don't think this forum can help you with this problem.

I use a lot of flash drives as storage disks, both as first and second copies. This frees up hard drive space, particularly when you move extensive programs and video folders to other devices.

Spamming is a bad thing and this forum shouldn't be abused as a market place for personal gain and commercial interests. We are here to form a friendly community, not buy and sell stuff.
I don't think that many members are interested in following links to products and services on other sites.
