Steam update adds ability to install multiple games at once. All you have to do is select the games you want to install in your library— Shift + mouse click or Control + mouse click depending on how much granularity you need—and then right-click one of the highlighted games and hit Install. Launch Steam and go to Steam Settings Downloads and click the Steam Library Folders button. This will open a window with all your current Steam Library folders. Click the 'Add Library Folder' button and select the folder with your installed games.

I have a substantial Steam library, and a new computer with plenty of disk space. I want to queue up all (or most) of my Steam games for downloading.

I know I can click on each one in turn, but I have to click a few times and wait while Steam creates locale game cache files.

Is there a way to do this quickly, preferably in bulk?

Steam has recently introduced an option to queue up games to be installed through a web interface. Make sure the target PC is running the Steam client, then go to your games list on the Steam website (the easiest way to do this is to click Community -> Profiles -> Games in the Steam client), open the All Games tab and click the install button next to the games you want to have installed. If not all of your games are showing up, click on Per page: All at the bottom of the page.

This is massively faster than going through the usual install dialog.

I assume its possible if you use the Steam browser protocol in a Batch (even even python) script.

here is a list of the possible commands, http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_browser_protocol

so you should need some thing like steam://install/<id> in a loop replacing the with the id of those games in your library.im not sure where you can get a list of game ID's you own.

who knows, maybe its even possible to just loop from 0 to 100000000, thus selecting every game you have on the way!

if you use this system id love to see your script!

As far as I'm aware, there is no way to queue the downloads in the way you want. If you still have your old computer, the easiest way to approximate this is to make a backup of your steamapps folder and re-install all your games from there, bypassing the need to re-download them. I suppose you could also transfer them from the old computer to the new one over a LAN, but I'd imagine most USB transfers would be faster.

as of August 2014 you can now shift+click all games in your library and right click to install. this will cue up all the games and download them all one at a time.

Sorry for the very late reply, but a lot of people visit this page because they are searching for the same. This is exactly what you are looking for:

IT IS FINALLY HERE!This script allows you to install all your STEAM games without user intervention.

Made by the one and only real Master-Guyhttp://steamcommunity.com/id/Master-Guy/games?tab=allHow it works:

Far cry 2 download tpb. OS:Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.

1) Log in into Steam on the computer where you want to download the games.

2) Install this script on any computer, it may be the same one, or a different one. I used the same computer myself.

3) Log in into the Steam Community in FireFox

4) Go to the following URL in FireFox, but replace the asterix (*) with your Steam Community name: http://steamcommunity.com/id/*/games?tab=all#installall

For example:http://steamcommunity.com/id/Master-Guy/games?tab=all#installall

Os x 10 5 iso. The script will wait 5 seconds before starting, and will trigger all game installation with 10 second intervals.The build-in download scheduler of Steam will pause the updates while starting the new one, and will only download one at a time.This is to optimize your download speed.This installed around 400 games and 150 DLC's onto my computer in 8 hours of time without any further user intervention.It might however require you to start the script twice if the internet connection isn't optimal.

If the 5 seconds isn't enough for the complete page to load, change the following line:var timeBeforeFirstGame = 5000;Increase the 5000 to the number of milliseconds you want to wait for the page to load.

I've Found out how to make this work. First get greasemonkey addon for Firefox then use the script that was linked above :http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/171425 and follow steps 1-3.

now i was confused because when i went to my profile page it doesn't say my name it just has a bunch of numbers i think this is steams new way SO. what you have to do is go into greasemonkey>manage user scripts>installallsteamgamesscript>options> then on the user settings> included pages>add and then add a url like this http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/*/games?tab=all#installall except replace the * with the numbers after profiles/ that you see when you go to your profile on steam. after you've added that to the included section put that into your browser and wait a few seconds for it to start up. Worked for me :D

Just bought a ton of new Steam games? Maybe you're swapping to a new computer and (for whatever reason) need to re-download your collection? Valve just made it a lot easier to batch-install multiple games.

Spotted by Steam Database, a recent Steam update now lets you right-click and install multiple games at the same time instead of going through the install dialogue for each game individually. All you have to do is select the games you want to install in your library—Shift + mouse click or Control + mouse click depending on how much granularity you need—and then right-click one of the highlighted games and hit Install.

The familiar Steam game installation window will pop up, except instead of a single game it will show you all the ones you've selected and how much cumulative space they'll take up on your drive. If you have second thoughts (or selected a game by accident) you can toggle it right from that dialogue screen.

It's a small change, especially compared to the recent UI overhaul and the extraordinary pace at which Valve has put out Steam updates recently, but it's probably the feature I'll use the most. I've got about 700GB free on this hard drive—I might as well fill it up. (And eventually wind up using the newfangled ability to hide games from your Steam library, no doubt.)
