Hey guys, dont know whether is the right place to ask from help here,
but my problem is i just reformat my pc n install the steam client.

But then i got back up my whole old steam folder,
Where can i find the games inside the folder?
I dont wanna re-download all the games, just need to copy and paste to my new folder.

Imagine just to download team fortress 2 (around 10GB ++) cry.gif cry.gif

Take forever to download, so please any brother could help me?

thanks in advance! notworthy.gif
