I keep getting that there’s one game installed on my Steam’s installation folder, but there’s no game installed, if I delete the «common» folder, it get created again at steam’s startup.
of course. common is where all your main game files go, so it should always exist
Since you have your profile listed as private it’s impossible to say what of your games might be adding it, but it’s safe to say that if you have seen it reinstall itself, it’s part and parcel for the steam process.
Do you have workshop items?
You can’t use anothers steamworks shared folder.
Right click the game in your library and verify your game files.
It’s quite strange, I have this folder too since very recently. In the «common» folder I only have «Total War» games and I always play them with Mods from this series, but I never saw this «Steamworks Shared» folder before. Why did it appear lately?
For «steamworks shared» if you actually look in it, you realize this holds drivers when you download your games. Before the changed was made your drivers download with and in the game folder, called «_CommonRedist», what Steam did was have one spot to download your drivers, instead of having bunch copies of «_CommonRedist» in every game folder for newer games, this cuts back on storage being wasted on the end user, as well makes it easier on the end user to finding all the drivers needed to running the game in one location which is QoL.
— This makes it easier for end users to find all the drivers in one folder.
— This helps reduce wasted storage a little.
Yes you’re always going to have Steamworks shared folder, as it’s part of Steam, just like if you deleted common folder, userdata, whatever, it’s always going to be remade in it place if missing, as that the design of this.

Steamworks alaways going to be on the same drive you install Steam on, you can’t change this, nor select what drive you want it on.
Steamworks is not something to worry about, it’s where your drivers just goes that’s about it, there nothing to go on about it really, that like complaining why Windows updates download files on same drive that you install windows OS on, that just how it is.

Ничего не появлялось, так и было

Большинство игр как были так и остались. А папка steamWorks shared создавалась и раньше с некоторыми играми (валв?)

Кто подскажет что это и зачем стало появляться на аккаунте?
Раньше с каждой игрой скачивались библиотеки (directx и пр.), теперь они вынесены в отдельную (внешнюю) папку, единую для всех игр
у меня вопрос: а нахрена?)

Now the first game you download that uses a particular version of a shared component will download and install it, just as before, although it is downloaded to a different place, but later games that need it will not download it or install it again, saving disk space, download capacity and time.
[GoogleTR]
Теперь первая загруженная вами игра, в которой используется определенная версия общего компонента, загрузит и установит ее, как и раньше, хотя она загружается в другое место, но в последующих играх, где она требуется, она не будет загружаться или устанавливаться снова, сохраняя дисковое пространство, объем загрузки и время.
это все очень интересно, но почему оно появилось в библиотеке(око сильно мозолит )?
