The process did not take much long for me as I am using a WD Black NVMe SSD that has Read and Write speeds up to 3100 MB/s and 1600 MB/s respectively. So all you have to do is wait for a while. The file size of Outriders is close to a whopping 80 GB. And then there are other obvious installations like the C++ Redistributable and the latest DirectX, that require some time to be fully installed as well. It is unpacking the game instead to get it ready for installation.

When Steam is showing that Outriders still being downloaded, that is not what actually is happening. And once the downloading is completed the unpacking will take place. Steam will actually download the Outriders installer file first. If you go and look at the download folder of Steam you will notice that there is nothing over there. So is this some sort of bug or glitch? Why is the download stuck? Is there a fix to this issue?Īctually the truth is, this is neither being caused by a bug, nor by a glitch.
