Reinstalling Skyrim

Post » Mon May 06, 2013 9:10 pm

I have reinstalled 4-5 times over the last year, each time I installed it from the CD and download the updates, and works great.

Today I removed and reinstall Skyrim from the CD, however, now every time it finish installing it from the CD, Steam delete most of the files and want to download 5.1 GB :sad:

Why is it doing this? Has anyone found this also?

Not sure why it does that. To reinstall Skyrim, I do not think you need the CD anymore IIRC. It is tied to your account once it has been installed (I did not have to touch the CD when I got my new PC when I installed Skyrim, it just downloaded).

Did you let Steam download the 5.1 GB? If you did, did SKyrim work fine then?

After downloading the 5 GBthe game is working.

Just a little annoying to have to download the whole game, as it took me 5 hours on my slow internet.
