Maybe it can grate for different personality types, maybe this game just isn't your cup of tea, so to speak.
Yes, I admit there are times it feels very much like frustrating tedious time wasting, but the really great fun times and successes make playing the game so worthwhile for me. I have just the kind of personality type ("retentive, some would say a PackRat mentality") that makes this game just so much actual FUN for me. I can be a bit scatterbrained at times, so I want to be careful and also keep notes as to what exactly I do, and whether it works or if there are watchouts for others so that my efforts aren't wasted. Not sure to whom I'm replying, so I'll comment on both comments:ġ) Something to try - yes, I imagine something along these lines should work (I HOPE - yet to try it, and I imagine it will take long time for the file transfers/transitions, but I wanted to try something very much along these lines, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH it is greatly appreciated and I will try to get back to you in regard to how it goes. Your game should be re-installed without going through the hassle (and bandwidth) of completely re-downloading the files. Steam should check its list of files that need to be downloaded against what is already present, recognize the files you put into the folder, verify what is there, and complete the installation. Yes, this means you'll need ~17GB of free space somewhere.ģ - After copying the files in Step 2, delete the Mass Effect 2 folder in steamapps > commonĦ - After about 1-5% of the download is complete, pause the download.Ĩ - Copy the files that you preserved in a safe place (in Step 2) into the new Mass Effect 2 folder that Steam has created in steamapps > common.ġ0 - Resume the download. Copy ALL contents of that folder to a safe place outside of the Steam folder (doesn't matter where). Not sure if it will work.Ģ - Go to your Mass Effect 2 folder in steamapps > common. Thanks very much anyone with useful help! PLEASE ANYONE WITH ANY ADVICE WOULD APPRECIATE THE HELP

Is it possible Windows has screwed up and restored to an earlier point? I did already obtain the game, and I was only playing it a couple of hours ago, and I have the keys from the DLC, but I don't seem to be able to get it back to how it was vefor the crash I also tried running the game from the launcher in the steam subdirectory directly, and though the launcher comes up, if I choose to play, i get an error 000005467 or some such.

I did go through the steps suggested by support but because it would appear that my steam install doesn't acknowledge the game is installed, it doesn't enable the option to "verify files" I just wonder if there is some way to get the game files to be recognised (I know they are there!) without having to A) delete a ton of stuff from my game drive to free up the space and B) to avoid having to spend 2 days downloading the game which I have already been through once. I recently completed the download of the game from steam, and for a while I had been playing it but I had a crash at some point and when I restarted my computer, ran steam the game page stated that the game HAD NOT BEEN INSTALLED, but it said I could download it (again) which would require 17Gb which Ino longer have available on my games drive.
