How to find C drive on Steam Deck
To find the "C drive" on your Steam Deck, you'll actually be looking for its equivalent, since Steam Deck runs on SteamOS, a Linux-based system. There's no explicit 'C drive' like on Windows. Instead, you'll access the internal storage through the Desktop mode. Open the file manager application in Desktop mode, and your primary storage will typically be mounted under a directory like '/home' or '/run/media'. That's where you'll find what you'd typically consider the C drive contents.

Tried searching for the mythical 'C drive' on my Steam Deck and spoiler: it doesn't exist. Just dive into desktop mode, open your file explorer, and bam, your files are right there, minus the C drive label. Welcome to Linux!
Honestly, just remember you're not in Windows land anymore. There's no C drive. Look for your files in the home directory or media when you're in Desktop mode. Steam Deck embraces the Linux way of doing things, which means different names for familiar places.
