Pretty much only games that were made pre-permission restrictions on Program Files because they try to write to the install folder. I think that was added around XP/Vista. Anything remotely recent shouldn’t have this problem (especially if it’s the default install directory).

Out of curiosity, what’s your install path for the game? Some games don’t cooperate with Program Files or Program Files (x86), so if it’s in there, try installing it to a different location and see if the problem persists.

Could be. I play more older games, so I’ve run into this a few times.

Try installing to somewhere besides those. I personally make a C:/Games folder and install everything in there.

moving the game to another drive helped! thanks!

I completely uninstalled steam after moving all of my games to a different drive through steams settings. Then installed steam itself into a c:/games folder and then moved back over the games I wanted on my SSD.

Hey! Are you the OP? Either way, I hope this helped.
