| === Verify Game Files ===
| |
| | |
| In the event of a game issue, it is sometimes recommended to make Steam verify the game files:
| |
| * right-click on the game in the Steam list
| |
| * select "Properties"
| |
| * click on "Local Files"
| |
| * press "Verify integrity of game files"
| |
| Steam will now verify and repair modified files. This will not erase any personal files; game progress, controls and other configurations will remain unchanged.

| | |
| === Move {{arma3}} Workshop Items ===
| |
| | |
| Mods in {{arma3}} can often take a lot of space, and storage capacity can quickly be overwhelmed. In order to circumvent this issue, it is possible to change the mods storage location.<br>
| |
| A {{Wikipedia|Symbolic link}} (also known as Symlink) can make this happen, making Windows believe a directory is actually in another location.
| |
| | |
| # Locate the Workshop directory, in which the {{hl|107410}} directory (which has the entire {{arma3}} related Workshop items) is present.<!--
| |
| -->{{Feature|informative|Usually {{hl|C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content}} or if SteamLibrary is installed on another drive (e.g {{hl|D:}}), {{hl|D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content}}.}}
| |
| # '''Copy''' the {{hl|107410}} directory to its new location (e.g {{hl|E:\NewArma3WorkshopDirectory}})
| |
| # Rename the {{hl|<workshop directory>\107410}} source directory to make a backup and ensure it is not used accidentally(e.g {{hl|107410_backup}})
| |
| # Open Command Prompt in Administrator mode (Windows Search > type "cmd", right-click > "Run as Administrator")
| |
| # Enter this command: <code style="display: block">mklink /d ''target'' ''source''</code>, where:
| |
| #* ''target'' is the original {{hl|107410}} location, e.g {{hl|C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\107410}}
| |
| #* ''source'' is the actual data directory, e.g {{hl|E:\NewArma3WorkshopDirectory}}
| |
| # Press {{Controls|Enter}} to run the command, here <code style="display: block">mklink /d "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\107410" "E:\NewArma3WorkshopDirectory"</code>
| |
| # This is it! There is nothing else to configure and nothing to change Launcher-wise. Start the game to make sure it recognizes the items properly.
| |
| # If everything went well, the backup can be safely deleted ({{hl|C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\107410_backup}}).
| |
| | |
| {{Feature|informative|
| |
| To delete a symbolic link, simply delete the ''target'' directory from Windows Explorer (here {{hl|C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\107410}} > right-click > delete).<br>
