I recently purchased Elder Scrolls Online Tamrieal Unlimited from Steam and downloaded a 66.6 GB installer. When launching it, there were no options to install the game elsewhere besides my SSD. My SSD has 54 GB, and while I had an option to place it in my Steam library, my drive only holds 131 GB, leaving little space for the 85 GB required with the installer. Do you have any suggestions on how to install it elsewhere?

You can use the Steam library on another drive by installing it through the Steam client and selecting the appropriate installation location.

I believe relocating steam to a drive with sufficient storage capacity will resolve the issue.

Steam installation varies depending on the device—sometimes it's for Windows, other times for macOS, and occasionally for Linux. Even if you have a sufficient space on one drive, the method might differ based on the specific setup.

I experienced issues with that method in Steam, so I had to set up a new folder on another drive before downloading the installer. Make sure you create a fresh Steam folder if needed, then relocate the installer there and attempt the download again. Use the Steam app instead of File Explorer for this process.

Check if installing Steam in your desired game directory is necessary.

I understand, but the issue seems to be with the installer. I'm re-downloading Steam.

@Abdullah Arif, where are you currently storing your Steam library files? Are they on your SSD or HDD? If you have multiple game libraries installed, you'll likely need to designate one as the primary installation drive for games. Based on what I see, the installer seems targeting the SSD. Do you have two Steam libraries—one on your SSD and another on your HDD?
