June 6, 20215 yr If this is the wrong place, forgive me. I just bought MSFS2020 but when I tried to install on a separate 500GB ssd drive it failed due, allegedly, 'read only' properties of the drive. I've checked in all ways possible, and the disk is not set to read only. Is this a known problem with Steam MSFS? It is currently installing on the 500GB disk where Windows and C:/ 'lives' which is not what I want. Andrew Andrew Gold
June 6, 20215 yr Can you install other games on that drive? test it. You can install on any drive with Steam. has nothing to do with the MSFS.

June 6, 20215 yr Weird. This is an old tried and true Steam feature. OP has to be doing something wrong. What I don't know but it's highly likely it had nothing to do with Steam. I have 3 separate drives I can install Steam games to never an issue Edited June 6, 20215 yr by styckx ASUS ROG STRIX Z390-E GAMING / i9-9900k @ 4.7 all cores w/ NOCTUA NH-D15S / 2080ti / 32GB G.Skill 3200 RIPJAWS / 1TB Evo SSD / 500GB Evo SSD / 2x 3TB HDD / CORSAIR CRYSTAL 570X / IPSG 850W 80+ PLATINUM / Dual 4k Monitors
