Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): 1639697812
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Fedora 35
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Steam library path in setting is in uppercase which make it invalid when you copy it. Linux filesystems are case sensitive and steam should not show steam library path in uppercase.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Open Settings -> Downloads -> Steam Library folder
  2. Path of your steam library is in uppercase
