"Creating local Game Files....allocating disk space" is stuck/takes forever/taking a long time
The disk space allocation download manager doesn't seem to be budging. Game is fully downloaded. On the last bar and stuck/slow movement? Have attempted solutions from other threads e.g. Clear download cache, task manager, update steam, downloads settings in steam to turn off auto update. Not sure what more I can do. I would hate to just swallow losing access to a game because steam is glitching out. What do I do here?

for what games are we talking here cause if it is a big game then it should take a long time.also how much free space does your drive have?

The Sims 3 with about 10 DLCs/expansion packs. It indicates 32k gb of space is needed and I am running a brand new, half terabyte, MSI laptop. If an hour or so seems reasonable to download 32k mbs then I suppose it is what it is. But that seems long to me. Thoughts?
