When I build my computer two years ago, I accidently split the hard drive in to 2 volumes. So this caused a big problem for my games(such as batman arkham asylum). Mainly that I have to go into the games folder to play it and not by clicking it on the steam client. Is there anyway to have this problem fix besides installing the game again?

I don't think, unless you have an external drive that you can move all the games too, then do whatever you have to to get your HDD into one single partition again.

Cant you just set Steam to look in that other directory? I know Steam has an option to install games across different directories in the properties/settings.

It's weird that didn't happen from the beginning. Personally I've set both E and F drive as steam libraries.
