Importing games into steam I guess ?

I have downloaded, installed and played Echo of Soul through Aeria Games Ignite but now that Echo of Soul is avalible on Steam, I want to update it and play it through steam like if first downloaded from Steam.
I have tried various things already like adding new Steam Library Folders but it says that the folder must be empty :(
Pls Help

Click "Add a game" on the bottom left of the Steam window, then "Activate a product on Steam" and enter the code that came with the game.

If you don't have a code, or Steam doesn't accept the code, then you can't add the game to your Steam account.

You need to use the Steam -client.

Games > Activate a Product on Steam; on top of the Steam -client.

Do note not every game can be activated on Steam.

With some it's possible, with others it isn't.

Let it start the download so it creates the folder within

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\

and try putting the files in there.

See how much of the files will have to be re-acquired; or if it will just overwrite it all.

Often times it's not possible though. ESO for one does support it.
