Multiple library / installation folders #5002

Problem description

I have internal and external storage (drives) and store games in both. In Settings > General > Default Installation Path, I can select only one folder to install games to. When installing a game to the other location, I have to manually navigate to the right place. There is no way to get an overview over which games are installed on the internal and which are stored on the external storage location. If I want to move a game from one location to the other, I cannot approach it from the storage location perspective but have to open the game in the "Library" tab and select Three Dots > Move Game, and at that point I have to manually navigate to the other storage location.

Feature description

It would be convenient if Heroic would offer a way to set up managed folders in both storage devices (and keep a list which library folders it is managing). Then it could also give me a overview over how much storage games in each library folder are consuming, and a go-to place to move games from one storage location to the other.

I imagine this would work similar to Steam managing storage locations by having multiple SteamLibrary folders, and giving an overview in Steam > Settings > Storage.

Alternatives

No response

Additional information

I am using Heroic 2.18.1.
