Where can I find the game version, ie if its 1.1?
First, and probably, last game I am getting that has Steam so its a learning curve. Taking things for granted, such as install paths, then finding its not like that.

run the game yesterday for the first time and Steam downloaded something, I assume its the 1.1 patch?

ps apologies for typo on thread tirle, doing this at work trying not to get caught, the pull of skyrim is too strong...

I think you can see it in-game in the menues.

thanks

It's in the bottom left corner of the in-game menu, I think. Where it says save/load etc.

Steam installs in steamapps/common and you can easily backup the stuff by copying those files out. It's quite convenient once you understand how it works.

I personally like having steam aggregate all my games in one place rather than multiple install directories. The easy backup also lets me put away games easily (got a SSD which is small)

Edit: never mind
