Share Steam games bought on parent account and computer to child account and computer
We have a number of games that have been bought with my Steam account and installed on my laptop. My child is now to get his own computer.
Preferrably he would have his own Steam account. If we want to install the games on his computer, is it possible to link accounts so they will be visible to him?
Solution 1:
You can enable family sharing through 'Setting' -> 'Family' and check 'Authorize Library Sharing on this computer'. After that you can click on 'Manage other computers' to add computers.
Note that if you play a game on a shared library, that nobody else can play a game from that entire library. So, if you are playing a game, your child has to wait untill you close the game.
Also note that "Not all games support Family Library Sharing".
For more info that a look at the support page of steam.
