For a quick file move, don't overlook the power of connecting through a network. If your Steam Deck and PC are on the same network, you can share files over FTP or SMB. It's a bit techier, but fast for moving large game folders without needing a USB stick.

Transferring files to your Steam Deck is pretty straightforward! Just plug in a USB drive with the files you want to move. Then, you can either use the Discover file manager in Desktop Mode to drag and drop your files where you need them, or for games, use Steam's built-in Backup and Restore function to transfer them directly to your Steam library.
