Step 7<\/strong>. Wait for the backup process to finish. The processing time can be fast or long, depending on the computer specs and the size of the game.<\/p>\nIn addition, if you save it to the SSD, it will automatically be faster than the hard disk.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Step 8<\/strong>. Done. Please click Open Backup Folder to view the backup data that has been made. Click Finish when done.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/How-to-Backup-Games-on-Steam-6.jpg\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
The backup data will later be in the form of special folders and files.<\/p>\n
If I suggest, it’s better to also copy the data to other media. For example, an external hard drive. Thus, the data can be more secure.<\/p>\n
<\/span>How to Restore Game Backup Results on Steam<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nAfter the data is backed up, you can restore it whenever you want. As long as the data is still in normal condition and not corrupted.<\/p>\n
How to restore it itself is not so difficult. You can follow the steps below:<\/p>\n
Step 1<\/strong>. First of all, open Steam as usual. Then click the Steam menu (top left), then select Backup and Restore Games.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/How-to-Restore-Game-Backup-Results-on-Steam.jpg\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
Step 2<\/strong>. Next, a new window will appear. Select Restore a previous backup.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/How-to-Restore-Game-Backup-Results-on-Steam-1.jpg\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
Step 3<\/strong>. Click the Browse button, then select the Steam game backup folder that we previously created.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/How-to-Restore-Game-Backup-Results-on-Steam-2.jpg\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
Step 4<\/strong>. Click Next to start the data restore process.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/How-to-Restore-Game-Backup-Results-on-Steam-3.jpg\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
Step 5<\/strong>. Wait for the restore process to finish. Just like a backup, the restore process also takes time. Yes, it also depends on the exact size of the game.<\/p>\n![\"How](\"https:\/\/techmaina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/How-to-Restore-Game-Backup-Results-on-Steam-4.jpg\" "\\"How")
<\/p>\n
Step 6<\/strong>. If so, then we can check the game in the Library. You can also click Play to immediately play the game.<\/p>\n<\/span>The Final Word<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nBacking up games on Steam, for me, is a must. Mainly for games that we often play, especially if they have a large size .<\/p>\n
That way, we don’t have to worry if the computer suddenly crashes and the data stored there is lost.<\/p>\n
Because here later we no longer need to re-download the game, which incidentally will take longer.<\/p>\n
