Steam common folder in win 10??? ***fixed, solved, caput, done***
So, I installed steam in win 10, I go to steam/steamapps then nowhere, has the common folder been changed to sourcemods because I see NO common folder?

There's no reason why it should be different.
Maybe it's not there because you might not have installed any games yet?

I ended up just making one so now I have one and have somewhere to put Dying Light all's good.

This one is all on steam install because it's all a clean install win 10 inclusive, steam should fix this.

The subfolders won't be under Steam\Steamapps if u have yet to install something that would go there. It is not there by default. But generally all u'd have to do is install a game and the Common folder would be created.

That just seems a little silly no offence to you but at steam.

For example in my case where I have all my games backed up and a simple paste into a common folder is needed to get up and going again, steam by default doesn't install a common folder steam by default forces you to re download at least one game to get the common folder unless the person clues in and simply tries to type in a common folder to avoid downloading Dying Light at 600KB/s.

Steam really should consider putting a common folder in by default to avoid confusion with a dash of aggravation..

It's just a folder, create it.
What is the confusion?

The confusion is it should be there by default the fact that it isn't is flat out stupid, anywho it's all fixed so no point in being condesendiing about it motha.

It really isn't stupid at all, and it's quite normal programming.
You don't tend to create folders until they are required.

What part are you guys missing.

You install steam, you take your save game folder data that you've backed up so you don't have to download it again because that's what most computer common sense ppl do then you take that saved folder stick it in the none existing common folder with transfer speeds around 100+ MB/s vs whatever internet speed you have in my case .6 of a MB/s even 10MB/s is too slow to me compared to 100+MB/s.

I'm floored at how stagnant ppl can be defending that no common folder is a good thing and acceptable until you download a 15-25GB game at a snails pace, seriously think about it.

If you don't use the official backup way, then you're gonna run into trouble. This is the case with most programs out there. Create the folder yourself.

I get what you're saying and I'm telling you that it's COMMON practice in programming.

It's considered tidy coding to not create folders until they're used.

I'm sorry you don't like this, but nothing can change this simple fact. It's hardly anything worth mentioning anyway. How hard is it to make a folder?

I understand now that I needed to make the folder but for you frog to say it's standard practice for a program to omit a key folder essential to hold a game by default in a gaming platform program still seems pretty stupid.

With any luck this post might help others that get blindsided by standard practice as stupid as it is.

Standard practice being WARNING Steam program doesn't come with a COMMON Folder by default it needs to be manually typed in.

There's absolutely no problem - putting up a post like this IS indeed helpful to others.

But I fear you're missing the point somewhat. It's common practice to not create a folder UNTIL IT IS REQUIRED.
As you had NO game data at the time, it would simply create when your first bit of game data is downloaded. That's kind of the point.

I'm not sure if you're young or inexperienced, but I can tell you this with absolute certainty from my years in computer departments. It was common 35 years ago, and it's still common today.

And do you know the main reasons why such tidy, efficient coding is necessary?

One major reason is so it makes it easy for another member of staff to get up to speed when delving in the code in the future. It makes it cleaner for amending too.

Say, a future coder wants to add a function BETWEEN the point in code where Steam is setup and YOUR point where you'd have the folder created. If it involved sidestepping this, you could end up with complication, and repeated code, as you'd then have to repeat the same commands for THAT extra function.

Again, I'm sorry you don't agree, but that doesn't change the simple fact that it's done on purpose and for good reason.

Standard practice is to use Steams front-end to backup & restore games and let Steams backend handle the file and folder job. If you bypass the front!end, you have to know what you're doing.

""As you had NO game data at the time, it would simply create when your first bit of game data is downloaded. That's kind of the point.""

Actually it didn't do that ^ tried that a couple times to see if the folder would show up then like I said took a stab in the dark and created a folder and voila.
