![]() Still, I thought I'd be somewhat social and interact with virtual people for a bit today. I suppose I can just load up a playlist of already downloaded xvi. Not that I play Far Cry 5 often anymore, but it still limits other activities during the process. Kind of complicated, huh? I suppose the least technical, easiest solution would be to just uninstall it, wipe the slate, and reinstall from Steam, but again, that'll take about 14 hours or so. However, since my download speed is horrid (probably laughable to some of you) I pointed steam to the already installed files, and just validated them in order to make it legitimate. Not only is the compressed file no longer on my hard drive, but I've since obtained a legitimate copy through the Steam platform. zip file remains on the drive, this isn't the case in my situation. It seems for everyone else, the extra disk space being used is due to downloading a compressed torrent which apparently doesn't clean up it's installation files once installed? Regardless, this is one of the only resources I've located so far referring to the specific issue I recently noticed, perhaps due to my uncreative search strings.

I just thought I would post on here to let others know. Again, I've only been at it for about 5-10 minutes from my original Google search to looking through the game directory, so I'm sure it won't be too difficult to rectify. ![]() This is the downloadable content that I DO NOT want to delete as it's add-ons for the game. %whereever%\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FarCry5\data_final\pc\downloadcontent I haven't explored the Far Cry 5 directory much at all yet, but the folder I initially thought it could be was: While that would definitely explain it, I've yet to find any definitive information as to where these files are located. the game did not clean up after itself after downloading all the installation files. Right off, skimming some of the search results, the first (and only so far) explanation that seems reasonable/possible is. I can't believe I didn't notice this far sooner, but Far Cry 5 is taking up 91 GB of space on my hard drive.
