The easiest way to reinstall a game on Steam? Just delete it from your library first (right-click > Uninstall), then reinstall it by finding the game in your library and hitting that Install button. Steam remembers your purchase, so no worries there.

Reinstalling a Steam game is pretty simple! Just go to your Steam library, right-click on the game you want to reinstall, and click 'Uninstall.' After it's uninstalled, just click on the game again in your library, and you'll see an option to 'Install.' Click that, choose your install location, and you're good to go!

If you're worried about data, make sure your game supports Steam Cloud for save files before uninstalling. Otherwise, it's as easy as uninstalling and reinstalling from your library.
