NOTE: If you have any other Steam library folders you're going to have to do all this for all of them.You can check to see if you do by opening Steam and going to the top-left hand corner and clicking Steam and scrolling down to Settings then press Downloads then Steam Library Folders.

Now open the downloading folder in the steamapps folder and delete anything that has 38630 in the name if there is any.īefore you proceed, I highly recommend checking to make sure you've completely cleared your Steam folder of any leftover Smite data/files, go to the Steam directory folder and in the search bar try searching for keywords like Smite, Hi-Rez, Hirez, and 38630 to make sure you've gotten all the files.Now go back to your steamapps directory (x86)\Steam\steamapps and find appmanifest_38630.acf and delete it if it isn't already deleted, 38630 is the AppID for Smite. If the folder with the name SMITE is still there then delete it. Go to your Steam folder directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam and go to the Smite directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SMITE.Also delete any shortcuts for Smite if there are still any. Next you want to go to Steam Support and click the Smite tab and then select the "I want to permanently remove this game from my account" and follow the steps till it says that Smite has been removed from your account.After that, Smite will be removed from your library but there are still files that you will need to delete to remove it entirely from Steam.

How to force update smite install#
This is mostly for people who want to do a clean install of Smite from the website instead of Steam after having installed it at least once from Steam. So for the ones of you who are either tired of all the bugs and trying to fix a lost cause this is the post for you. After literal hours of trying to fix it I raised the white flag and gave up and decided to just remove the game completely and just get it off the website which I recommend doing than getting it off Steam, there's so many problems with the Steam version of Smite, it's probably why LoL wouldn't be good on here either. I've been having so many problems with SMITE lately first I was missing files, then I had to uninstall and reinstall which made the problems 10x worse and the launcher kept freezing so on and so forth.
