(this is a good thing) and click finish. Now it should work. Thanks bro but I've already tried that too. Because you can only add files that are empty for the library folder, I couldn't add the file in my drive but instead create another one. Sadly, when I clicked download it really just started downloading again | ||

I think you can choose the destination folder too. The thing is I don't want to wait 3 hours to download it again and sadly I tried this too and the backup doesn't work apparently since Steam says it's the first time I'm downloading dota 2 (what?) | ||
