I have a second 'data' drive, so I moved the Steam Library to it.  The files are still deep, but not to the level of the default install.

I show my Steam folder is about 18GB.  If I wanted to move that out of the ProgramFiles86, I would just move that entire folder to another USB or the C:\ root?

Warning: Don’t use Windows to do this.

Steam has functions to create new libraries on other discs, and to move apps between them.

Use these functions to move FSX:SE.

Definitely follow the Steam guide for moving the installation folder.

got it!  Not moving anything yet.  If it works where it is, I'll leave it there. Thanks for the tip

Will do.  Thanks

Try here...

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX

 

 That is where it is on my PC, hope that helps.

Same location as mine.   Going to leave it there as long as it's happy there.
