Still, if you install on an external drive and then unplug it, steam will stuck with no storage place...
So i've got an external USB SSD for big and rarely-used games. I've installed the game there directly and next time launched steam without this drive attached. Tried to install a new game and that's what i've seen: https://pasteboard.co/JXgwrzD.png

Please fix this already, why did you forgot that i've got steam library on C:\?

External Hard Drives

External hard drives are not recommended for use with Steam or Steam's games. Aside from many potential performance issues, external hard drives may connect or disconnect from the computer at inopportune times as part of their normal operations. If you encounter this issue with an external drive, install Steam and your games to an internal drive instead.
