Post Winter Sales Steam Folder Size

Closed
Osiris11235

Now that the Steam Winter Sale and other Winter Sales are pretty much done, what is the size of your Steam folder?

Mine is now a whopping 2.62 TB. Everything on my account has been installed. In total, I have 2.81 TB of game files installed from various services and stand-alone installers.

After the first XBOX Live service permanently went down, locking people out of any previously purchased content, I'm a strong believer in having a local backup of all digitally downloaded content. Steam likely won't go down for good (anytime soon). I just liked to be prepared :)

This. Why would anyone install them all at the same time? Pointless.

~13GB larger than it used to be. Only got Borderlands 1 GoTY.

Won BoI which is installed, won Mirror's Edge which isn't installed but waiting till I get to uni to DL that as my internet is ~10x faster at uni so :/

Comes to a total of 166 GB in the steamapps folder, which is where afaik most of the game files get installed so is probably the largest part of the Steam folder.

even if steam will go down i still think you'll be able to download all your purchased games or activate retail games that were in shop before ....
