I can't do that. Since the game is uninstalled, the option to verify game files is greyed out.

I tried that and it did nothing.

If it's not seeing your game files and they're greyed out, and under the downloads > library folders listed your dirve IS there, then you can fix this usually by removing the drive from that list, then adding it again. It should then pick all the relevant files up and see them then.

If it still doesn't, then there's something very wrong with those files or the drive itself, and in that case you're going to have to reinstall the whole thing.

Question - what kind of drive are you using? It isn't a USB thumbdrive is it? Because I've seen this problem when people erroneously think they can use USB thumbdrives for storage and you CANNOT.

If it's a USB hard drive, it';s quite common. As I said if it's a USB THUMB drive, they don't work. Some users foolishly try using it and it ♥♥♥♥♥ up.

Did you try what I suggested?

I can't because I honestly just got tried of waiting so I tried to reinstall the game and now the download is constantly ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ the bed (like Steam stopping the download because I "don't have enough space" even though I do). I'm getting kind of off-topic though.

Well, that's why you're going to get problems like this because you need to focus on ficing the issue.

Please go back and try what I said. I said it for a reason. I wonder if it's trying to put the update on the wrong drive as that does happen, SO please do as I previously suggested.

Don't remove your Steam library. That's not what I said. I'll say this one last time - please go back and read what I wrote. I detailed exactly what to do, and I didn't just type that out for fun.

I'm trying to help you, but if you won't read what I've written there's no point in contiuing. So please, look again.

So just to be clear you tried removing and adding the hard drive as I stated, because your last response was that you hadn't tried it (you were tired of waiting).

So, run through EXACTLY what happens step by step when you try to do as suggested.

Wait, did you mean literally taking out the hard drive from my PC and putting it back in? I thought you said something else, my bad.

And that's EXACTLY why I said to read it CAREFULLY.

So please, go back, read it carefully, and run through exactly what happens step by step.

Last chance.

Man, this ♥♥♥♥ is impossible to understand, and I'm having the same problem as Light did.
