Steam config file location

You cant do that. Originally posted by wuddih :. I think it must be on C: drive because Steam is installed on a different partition than Windows and when I reinstall Windows, Steam and all the games remain intact. However, when I run the client, it's back to English. This means the language setting must be on C: drive. It seems not only the language setting is there, the startup mode's there too. Thanks, fauxtronic.

The game closes and I find myself on the deskop. Have you also had problems? The folders with just numbers are random numbers, different for different people. Yes, Steam uses the cloud. As for the install path, it is as posted above.

Sorry for not clarifying if that caused any confusion. Again here, Steam has opened the Counter-Strike install folder, but this is not where the "userdata" folder is. Right above the list of files is a file path that will look this:. Each folder is labeled with a number, and that number happens to be a Steam Account's unique SteamID.

So, if you're like me, I didn't even realize this change occurred and I needed to find my SteamID as well. Steam never tells players where to put their custom CSGO configurations, so here is the process step by step. Right above the list of files is a file path that will look this:. Users should find the folder that matches their SteamID and continue opening three more in this order:. Make sure that you can see the file extensions. If done like this, a clean install of CSGO will wipe everything in this folder.
