Steam, whose interface is aging in certain aspects, is modernized by touches. A recent update thus improves the downloads page and the interface that allows you to manage your storage disks.
Valve has just updated the stable version of its Steam client, offering improvements available in beta for a few months. If some of these novelties are anecdotal, others have indeed an interest for the players. This is the case with the new download tracking page, as well as the revisited management of storage space.
A more useful downloads page
So the new downloads page always lets you know at a glance where a game download or update is, but it now also shows the installation status of files in real time. This will make the entire process more readable, which will perhaps avoid certain frustrations of games that remain impossible to launch when their download is indicated as being finished.

The presentation of downloads is such that it is also natural to reorder your priorities by dragging up or down your different games in order of preference. Interesting when you know exactly which games are being downloaded or updated that you want to play as a priority. Finally, access to the Patch Notes has been improved so that players can easily know – when this section is correctly filled in by the developers – what exactly the contents of the updates are.
Better management of storage spaces
As for storage management, it has been reviewed in order to better display the storage space available on each of its volumes. Convenient, it will also be easier to transfer games from one disc to another, as it will now be possible to create a Steam library on read-only discs or to delete an empty library from a disc that is no longer in use. for Steam.

The Steam client updates itself logically, but it is possible to force this upgrade by going to the software menus and checking the availability of a new version. It is possible that not all users have access to these new features at the same time, the deployment of the update can sometimes take a little time. Anyway, all the improvements made by this new Steam client are listed in this blog post.
