DLC duplication when moving Steam folder

Recommended Posts

I moved Arma 2 OA from my SSD to my HDD, but neglected to tell Steam to move the 3 x DLCs too, so it redownloaded them and installed them all to the SSD the next time I ran the game!

When I moved OA it also copied across the BAF/PMC.ACF folders too (that's why I didn't tell Steam to copy them from their own Steam pages).

 

If I try to move them inside Steam it says that the folder already exists. If I delete the one on the HDD that "already exists" then Steam says it still "already exists".

 

If I delete the one from the SSD (which is just the DLC SETUP folder basically) then the game won't run at all (!)

 

It's not like I can uninstall all the DLC and then reinstall them, because they don't have true installers where you can select the destination.

 

Any suggestions would be awesome, because I don't like wasting a gig and half of precious SSD space on duplicated files.
