Moving install folder to another Steam library

[Myscho 6,371]

So i created another Steam library on C: drive (SSD) and i like to move Warframe there, which is now installed on E:/also default Steam install location, sadly Steam dont have that option - Move install folder - for Warframe.

I think simpy ctrl+c a ctrl+v wouldnt work. So any idea to do this properly without downloading whole game ??

Thanks

I had to move the game between laptops, I simply copied the entire Steamapps folder and some other folder I think it was userdata, to new drive then just restarted Steam and it worked. Some games needed integrity check but there were no problems.

For more 'clean' solution, try this

Find the game you want to move in your Games library.

Right-click it and select Properties.

Click the Local Files tab.

Click Move Install Folder.

Choose a new location where you'd like to store your game.

I read same advice, just copy Warframe folder from SteamApps\Common and manifest.acf file to another Library Common folder, but im not sure how Steam wil know path to new files or moving manifest.acf outside Steam just to be sure

browse local files opens up the warframe folder in windows, you move THAT FOLDER into your new steam install.
