Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): 1578700296
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Linux Mint 19.3

  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When Windows games get moved to a new library folder, with the Steam internal tools, the Proton Prefix won't be moved alltogether. This leads to a new Prefix in the new library folder.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Install a game with Proton and launch it, so a Prefix will be created
  2. Move the game with the Steam local files tools to a new library folder
