"Add a New Steam Library Folder" window not appearing, as well as another issue with it

[Points Shop PFP]

ISSUE
Pressing the + button in the Storage Manager window refuses to open up an important window, skipping to a folder selection window with zero context.

OS
Windows 11 Pro

STEPS
Go to the Steam settings
Select Downloads
Select the Steam Library Folders button
Next to where your drives would be, a + icon appears. Click that button.

RESULTS
I am taken to a folder selection window. Selecting a folder prompts with this message:

This implies that the window is for selecting a folder in a different drive, disallowing someone from selecting an alternative download folder in the same drive. Prior to the new UI update for the Storage Manager window, you were allowed to select another folder in that same exact drive.

EXPECTED
A window ( https://i.imgur.com/UyVWChp.png ) for selecting a particular drive or a different folder to add should appear. This window does not appear, but it seems as if it tries to appear due to the strange white window that quickly disappears before the folder select window appears. Also, as stated before, the ability to select a folder in the same exact drive doesn't seem to be working.

Worth noting that I only have 1 drive, both used as my boot drive and also used for installing games.

it's NOT bug:
1st - Valve restricted make more than 1 library per partition 5+ year ago (but you still can do it by using my workaround - i get 1 month community ban for this, lol) https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/135511294066324002/#c135511294068114690

P.S.: someone even make tool for it https://github.com/LostDragonist/steam-library-setup-tool/wiki/Usage-Guide
Has M$ already bought Valve? - They remove the basic functionality of the client, and add a bunch of crap that no one needs.

2 - W11 is NOT real OS - it's joke, an backdoors and bugs pack that impersonate as an OS
use W10 or LInux for gaming - there only 1 game that have real benefits from W11 - it's Valorant

Huh, I couldn't find any info on the situation, thanks for the info. The thing is, I do recall being able to add new folders in one partition in 2021, so that's odd.
Thanks for sharing that, as well as sharing the tool, cannot thank you enough!

I changed my Display from 1920x1080 to 800x600 and the button came up then change it back once I changed the location.

eesh - still not fixed nearly 18 months later huh?

Worked for me on my main PC when I had to reinstall everything a few months ago, but *doesn't* work now on the new PC. I just get an empty dialog where none of the buttons work - which is kind of a problem since i can't install to the default drive, so this means I can't install *anywhere*. Great job!

Can be worked around by writing config files by hand, but man - having this happen in the first case was MS-tier QA, but to still not have fixed it for so long is just epic levels of fail.

The new machine is on Linux, so it's even one every platform. HowTF did someone think removing the location choice was even a sane idea, let alone a good one?! Mind you, "testing" permissions by trying to write files into the root directory of a drive like it's 1995 doesn't exactly inspire confidence either.
