Family Link
I hope somebody can guide me in the right direction.

Ok, my children are now old enough to have a steam account so I've created them both and linked them to my newly created family.

I have many Non-Steam games as well as Steam ones but I use Steam as a central "load everything" spot i.e. Battle.Net. Gog, Epic games all can be run from Steam. As a result I have many categories (54 to be precise).

What I have noticed is that the child accounts have no categories and only have the steam games despite them being on the same PC (the girls have their own log-ins)

I can either recreate 54 categories and relink lord know how many games manually.....twice unless somebody knows a quicker way I can set their library up like mine.
Whilst I don't mind them not syncing all the time though it would be nice, a simple one-off quick copy would be great.

Any ideas before I go insane?

Non-Steam games are not covered by Steam Family Sharing because they, in principle, do not require a Steam account.

Non-Steam game entries are stored locally and are bound to the Steam account they are added for and therefore do not appear in linked accounts nor on other devices.

Keep in mind that other platforms (Epic, GOG, Battlenet, etc.) might not permit account sharing in the first place. Steam added Family Sharing as a feature to avoid account sharing within the same household as a courtesy which is usually not provided by similar platforms.

If they are stored locally then there must be a file I can copy into their profile to put all the non-steam games on the profile.

See <Steam Root>\UserData\<Steam numeric account ID>\config\shortcuts.vdf

Steam does not store data in Windows user profile locations, only in its own installation. Good luck editing the respective file if necessary.

The format is documented here: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_Library_Shortcuts

yes, exactly what I needed. Many thanks.

I still need to do the categories but I don't have the pain of adding all the games.

Thanks again
