Windows 10: Why is a folder called "installers" showing up on my desktop?

Hello,Tonight I noticed that there is a folder on my desktop called "installers". I didn't put it there.Does anyone know why it appeared there, and/or what I should do with it? Do I need to put it back somewhere? If so, where? How did it get on my desktop?Thanks in advance!

:)

 

Insurgency wont install and run for me....

I have played and have fully updated CS and Half life 2....
I am using the newest client and installed the SDK.

I am completely blown away, if i click the desktop icon it starts the sdk and then closes, and it doesn't show up in my game list...

First mod attempt install here, followed the directions step by step on the mods website...

Any ideas?

 

Deleted icons stay on desktop (not in desktop folder)

I can only suggest that you
1 Add a list of steps you have already taken.
2 Add a comment about restarting the computer. Do the deleted icons disappear then?
2 Add a comment explaining if any Desktop items do delete correctly and whether or not there are any significant differences between those that do delete correctly and those that don't.
3 Add a list of any OS tweaks you have done & any third-party OS-related utilities you have run.

I assume you have already reinstalled your display driver.
I don't see a Repair install as being relevant. Repair Install - TenForumsTutorials

Installing SSD right now, could use some advice.

yes you can.

install 1 game and then you create a shortcut to the game folder but move them to another drive. its called a symbolic link i think.

EDIT i guess ill look in my computer and show you how.


STEP 1: Go to your computer





STEP 2: Go to your C: drive and to the Steam folder, look for the folder "steamapps"





STEP 3: Now cut and paste to the drive you want the games installed on. Now go back to the "Steam" folder on the C: drive. I used my SD card since im running my laptop with my SSD on it ATM, but follow these steps of creating a shorcut INSIDE your steam folder. Create a shortcut.





STEP 4: Navigate to "steamapps" folder on your game drive. select the folder but NOT any of the folders or files IN IT.





STEP 5: Look and make sure the path is correct and click next





STEP 6: MAKE SURE the name of the shortcut is EXACTLY the same as the ORIGINAL steamapps folder even the case. Then click finish.





STEP 7: We will pretend my SD card is the inside of my steam folder. You should now have a shartcut called steamapps it should NOT say "shortcut to" before it and when you mouse over it it should be the PATH to the other drive the ACTUAL folder is located at.






your done. MAKE SURE STEAM IS OFF BEFORE YOU DO THIS.
