Use cloud storage instead of computer memory
Hi guys, newbie here need some help, anyone can clarify me if there any way I can directly store my game to the cloud storage only so that it will not eat up my computer storage. My computer memory is about to full, I am thinking if these games folder can be stored in cloud all of the components of the game, is it possible? thanks in advance.

Steam Cloud doesn't store the entire game and games don't run from a cloud storage like OneDrive.

:nkCool:

You are mixing two different concepts.

Think you need to educate yourself about the difference between Computer Memory, and Storage ;)

+ as above user point out, and what prevent yuo from buying cheep hard drev media that might even work at RPM disk or SSD to the fre games that require this only.

if pc has usb-c then such media is even faster. or usb3

storage space is a user own problem, even uninstall/remove games you don't play anymore.

oh my bad, sorry if you don't understand, if you really know what I'm about talking about, there's no need for you to interpret each word, since its obviously my problem there is storing the games to cloud and not on my computer. tsk (my gosh kids now adays, prioritizing to critic instead of directly answer the question.) :steambored:

Cloudsaves are only for savegames on steam, nothing else.

If your low on storage space, you could always buy an cheap external storage drive and plug it into your system.
