Games folder

Recommended Posts

This might - or might not- be the right place for this topic but.............. :confused:

 

I've noticed that I've got a "Games" folder of some 51 G on my main SSD. At the same time I've got my Steam folder cluttering up some 68 G.

 

Would it be safe to move (Changing the drive location under properties) the Games folder to another drive? I can see it contains the NMM zip and rar files I've downloaded. Even some I don't use anymore.

You can move it, as long as you change the paths in NMM. To avoid problems, copy the files instead of moving them. Then, when copied, open NMM, hit the cogwheels at the top of the interface and choose the Fallout 4 tab in the settings menu where you'll need to change the paths to the new location in the top two boxes.

 

If you immmediately move the folder and open NMM, NMM won't find its own folders and it could be that all mods for all games get uninstalled in the process.

 

After you've adapted the path for all the games you are using NMM for, you can delete the original Games folder.

 

Should NMM for some reason refuse to open after the moving of the Games folder, re-install NMM and point the installer to the new location of the Games folder.
