#How to delete local content steam 2017 update#
Steam Client Update Patch Notes (January 19) General You can check out the full update notes below. When in Big Picture mode, there's now support for using the overlay keyboard with games that first open a launcher. Steam also now has "improved" error messages when there are issues downloading a game or updating files. Other small adjustments include the "Delete local content" option being renamed "Uninstall," which almost makes me sad after that being the name for so many years. It was possible to do this previously without re-downloading a game, but the process involved manually moving the folder yourself and then relocating it inside Steam. As pictured above, the Local Files tab of a game's Properties menu now contains an option to move the installation from one Steam folder (or drive) to another. This should make it easier to use a wide variety of controllers with Steam games that otherwise don't include native controller support without resorting to third-party apps.Īlso new is the ability to easily move Steam games from right inside the program. The biggest addition, as reported when a beta version of the update was first released, is configurator support for Xbox 360, Xbox One, and generic X-input controllers. Valve has released a new update for Steam that introduces some new functionality and reworks other aspects of the client.
