Now that you have the rFactor2 Steam license, you need to do one other thing – decide where you want to install it and where you have space to install it! Finicky, but it helps avoid other problems later on. Sometimes updates don't appear until the previous update is installed, and sometimes Steam doesn't find updates until it is restarted. Once it is done checking, close Steam, reboot, then check it again. In the upper left menu, click on 'Steam' then 'Check for Steam Client Updates'. To do that, double-click the Steam shortcut icon on your desktop. Doing so can save some headaches later on with regards to permissions and accessing / installing files.īefore installing any game in Steam, it is wise to make sure your Steam installation is up-to-date. I would suggest you install it in a non-protected Windows folder. You can use the default installation for Steam, and it will load it into C:\Program Files\Steam\ but you may want to consider installing it in a different location on another drive that has more space (for example, D:\Steam\ or D:\Games\Steam\) and is not a Windows protected folder. That is determined by your available hard drive space. Next, decide where you want it to install it. If you do not already have the Steam program, you can download the free program from.
