One thing I did and do here since Steam also sees various mods you can download separately since originally running right into this particular problem was use the option for backing up any local game files. But instead of seeing that in the local folder on C I make any backups to a second storage drive in the event the drive is wiped for any reason.
With the backup complete and if you should lose the present files you can still log in and see everything redownloaded fresh without the need to buy the new dis Oringinally I got slammed twice with a few titles and found this out once FEAR2 was on as well as Wolfenstein being a non Steam title there.
With the first account not having an immediate jpeg of the physical case, disk, and product key insert available when making an inquiry about how the new disk instantly activated to an existing account before being able to create a new separate account they simply closed up the first account making all disks USELESS!
And you wonder why I still will always prefer the install from disk onto drive directly type games rather then any requiring you log into some online account?
(I could make a Youtube clip to send back to them on the disks turned down a bit on an engine lathe and the plastic boxes milled through on a milling machine but still wouldn't get anywhere with them. )
