Huh, this is actually one of the few "How to launch game"-style tutorials I've read that aren't just "Click the play button, idiot."
Good job!

You did? I don't see anything like that in the guide. Maybe my computer looks different from yours.
GreenMan36  [author] 19 Jan, 2024 @ 9:38am 
Already mentioned in the guide.

In File Explorer, I go to This PC, then my computer's main drive, then users, then my user, then AppData, then Roaming, Then Microsoft, Then Windows, Then Start Menu, Then Programs. You should be able to see a Steam folder in the Programs folder. Inside the steam folder, you should then be able to see shortcuts for all of your games. If you click on the one for "Portal: Revolution" The game should open. If you don't want to go through all the work to find the folder, or if you just can't find it, you can just put "Steam" in the search bar in File Explorer and it should show up.
