You have multiple Godot versions outside of Steam, for example custom builds or for trying out the latest build freshly baked from the Godot repo and would love having your personalized configuration shared among all builds. 🌐 In that case, it's best to disable self-contained mode of the Steam instance of Godot.

If you have extensively used Godot in Steam already before and would like to take over its settings as the main configuration for every Godot build, move its data from the local editor_data to the equivalent global locations as follows:


The editor_data folder can safely be removed from the Steam directory afterwards.

Beware to repeat this action everytime Godot gets updated as the ._sc_ file will be restored.
