    Also, I don't know if this matters, but I'd pick a different name for my new games directory. Steam doesn't care, but Windows might automatically complicate things due to using a reserved folder name.
    I couldnt find anything interfering with steam so Im just gonna give this a rest. Its taking away from my gaming time and thats unacceptable. lol.

      Sometimes that decision is the best one.

        lol. Ill probably just back up my files on the second hard drive as well as a thumb drive. Multiple redundancies.

          I installed Steam on my second HDD with no issues using the same directory structure. Did you already have it installed on your main drive?

            I did but then uninstalled and tried to do what was recommended previously in this post but still got the same error message. I heard that the difference isnt really noticable unless you have a solid state drive or something like that.

              unless you are running low on HDD space on your main drive, I wouldn't worry about it and just install on the main drive.

                Now we have had a lot of flooding in this area and there are still a lot of houses that have not been repaired. Must be the apocalypse.
