How to tell how much space a game takes up on my hard drive...?

[Gavindale Marchovia]

Hey guys! A quick question - how do I tell how much space a game takes up on my hard drive? I am referring to games that I already have in my library. Any help is appreciated!!!

Click the "STEAM LIBRARY FOLDERS" button.

Use Treesize Free and it will show exactly what space is occupied and by what.

Go to your steam library, click on the gear icon on the far right labeled "Manage", and in the drop down menu it creates, highlight your mouse over the "Manage" option. Then click "Browse Local Files".

Once you are at the game folder, select all of the items within it, and right click. In the menu that is created, click ''Properties". This will tell you the actual amount of space your game is taking up.

You can alternatively go to Properties > Local Files from your steam library, but this will only tell you how much the game itself takes up, and will not account for mods or DLC. For example, Garry's Mod claims to only take up 3.99gb on my drive in steam, but in reality it takes up over 10gb because of the mods I have installed.
