You can just transfer the already downloaded game from one HDD to another. This will save on Internet bandwidth consumption. However, many gaming experts have observed that the transfer process takes longer than re-downloading. You can transfer the game files and save bandwidth or download the game again on the new hard disk. You can also facilitate a transfer of Steam game files to a friend\u2019s hard drive if he\/she also owns the game with his\/her account. Without further ado, let us begin the guide.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Are The Requirements For Direct Steam Transfers<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To transfer Steam games over your local network, you&#8217;ll need to meet these straightforward requirements:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The Steam app should be installed and logged in on all computers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> All computers should be connected to the same local network.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Direct transfers must be enabled on all relevant Steam clients (this is typically enabled by default).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The game you want to transfer must be installed on at least one computer within the network.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Both computers must be powered on.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, let\u2019s discuss how to initiate a direct transfer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also Read: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/steam-pending-transaction-error\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Fix Steam Pending Transaction Error<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How To Enable Steam Local Network Transfer<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1.

However, verifying if this option is turned on before you begin the transfer is recommended. Here are the steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Launch the Steam app and click on the Steam tab in the upper left corner.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Click on Settings followed by Downloads.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

If you want to share the game files with a different Steam account, locate the &#8220;Allow transfers from this device to&#8221;\u00a0 option and click on the dropdown next to it.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Choose &#8220;Anyone&#8221; to begin the transfer process.

Here are the steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Launch the Steam app and click on the Library tab.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. A list of games installed will appear on your screen. Right-click on the game you wish to transfer and select properties from the context menu.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Next, click on the Installed Files tab in the left panel.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4.

Steam will automatically fix the corrupted files, after which you can try to transfer the files again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also Read: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/ways-to-fix-steam-disk-write-error\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Fix Disk Write Error In Steam on Windows 11\/10<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Disable Security Software Temporarily<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some experts have noted that antivirus software prevents the smooth transfer of game files over Steam&#8217;s local network. Hence, they suggest temporarily disabling the antivirus software. Here are the steps to disable the Windows Security app on your PC. If you use a third-party antimalware app, look for the documentation to disable it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Press the Windows key and type \u201cWindows Security.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Click on the best match result.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

Slide the toggle button under Real Time protection towards the left to disable it.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6.

Enable real-time protection after the transfer is complete.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What To Do If The Steam Local Network Transfer Is Slow<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Update The Steam App On All Devices<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Experts recommend that before beginning any file transfer, the Steam app must be updated to the latest version on all the devices involved. This helps maintain the same version on all the devices and facilitates a smooth transfer of game files.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Launch the Steam app and click on the Steam tab in the top-left corner.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Choose \u201cCheck for Steam Client Updates\u201d from the dropdown menu.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24832\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Check-for-Steam-Client-Updates.webp\" alt=\"Check for Steam Client Updates\" width=\"258\" height=\"286\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. The Steam app will connect to the Steam servers and download\/install any updates that are available.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Use A Wired Connection If Possible<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After updating the Steam app, if file transfer is still slow, some experts suggest using a wired connection for better transfer speeds. In many cases, a wired connection is faster and more stable than a wireless connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ensure Both PCs Are Idle<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While initiating a transfer of Steam game files, it is necessary to ensure that both computers are not carrying out heavy processes that consume CPU and GPU resources. Also, there must be no downloads on either PC. This will ensure that all the resources and bandwidth are dedicated to the Steam transfer process only, which may increase the transfer speed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Delete Steam Download Cache<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final step to fix slow Steam Local Network transfer is to delete the Steam Download Cache. Here are the steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Open the Steam app and click on the Steam tab in the top left corner.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Select Settings and click on the Downloads tab in the left panel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Clear-Download-Cache.webp\" alt=\"Clear Download Cache\" width=\"594\" height=\"226\" sizes=\"(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. In the right section, click on the \u201cClear Download Cache\u201d button.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24834\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.systweak.com\/content\/wp\/bg_systweak_com\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Confirm-Clear-Download-Cache.webp\" alt=\"Confirm Clear Download Cache\" width=\"751\" height=\"211\" sizes=\"(max-width: 751px) 100vw, 751px\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Click on the Confirm button in the prompt box.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. You will be logged out of your Steam account. Log in to your account and start transferring Steam game files.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also Read: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/steam-download-stuck-at-0-bytes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steam Download Stuck at 0 Bytes? Here\u2019s What You Can Do!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Update Network Drivers<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that Network drivers also play an important role in transferring files over a network? If the network drivers are corrupted, you may not be able to transfer any files. On the other hand, outdated drivers can slow down the transfer of game files. There are three methods to download and update Network Drivers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 1: Update drivers using the manufacturer\u2019s website<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first method of updating drivers is to visit the official website of your PC manufacturer and search for the driver related to your brand and model. However, this method can be too technical for many, so we recommend the remaining two methods.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 2: Update drivers using the Device Manager<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second method is to use the Device Manager tool on your PC. The only limitation of this method is that you cannot always find updated drivers here. This tool connects to a Microsoft server for driver updates only and may not have the latest version of drivers. Here are the steps.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press Win + X and select Device Manager&gt; Click <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Network Adapters&gt;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Right-click on your network adapter and choose Update Driver.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Method 3: Update Drivers using Advanced Driver Updater<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The final method to update drivers is using the Advanced Driver Updater app. This software overcomes the limitations of the previous two methods and can update all the drivers to their latest compatible versions with a few mouse clicks. Here are the steps:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1.
