It is a voxel-based building, crafting, and adventure title that should seem immediately familiar to any veteran of ARK: Survival Evolved and Minecraft.Some might say it more closely resembles Trion Worlds’ Trove, however.

The only file you'll need to add to Steam to be able to play Minecraft is the Minecraft.exe.

You just have to add the minecraft.exe file. On my Windows machine it is under Program Files/Minecraft, but I am not sure if that is consistent. In any case, you can just search for minecraft.exe file and add it wherever you find it.

To actually add it to Steam, you just have to go to the 'Games' menu and click on 'Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library..'. In the window that opens, either choose minecraft.exe if it is in the list or browse for it in whatever location you found it in.

In my case, the standard method of adding minecraft.exe as a non-steam game wasn't helpful as I needed a method that works in Steam Big Picture mode without going back to the desktop view. To do this, you first need to skip the Minecraft launcher as explained in this question: Can I bypass the new launcher?

That method should give you .bat file that you can run that will skip the Minecraft launcher. However, since Steam's 'Add a non-Steam game' feature only allows you to select executables with an .exe extension, you will need to do the following to run the newly created batch script from Steam:

  • Add a non-Steam game and choose any application/game
  • Right-click on the newly added application in your Steam game list and select properties
  • Change the target field to point to your new batch script and the start in field to point to it's directory, and then also change the name/icon to identify it as Minecraft.

I have the same problem in that I cannot find my game files anywhere.

My story in short: I got a gift certificate for Christmas for Xbox but have a 360 I no longer use. Found out I could use that to buy PC games and bought Middle-earth: Shadow of War. First game purchase ever from Microsoft Store.
After playing a couple times the game will not run after displaying the start up screen. After trying a few things I just reinstalled the game after a 6 hour re-download time and the game worked fine. After a few more plays it fails to run again.
I see fixes on Steam forums on playing with the game settings, but I need to find the setup files first. They are either cleverly hidden in generically named folders or in hidden folders or possibly on a cloud somewhere because searching for keywords involving that game is coming up with nothing my desktop icons. It's like I don't really own the game I paid for.

If I don't find a fix my $60 is wasted and I will never purchase through the Windows Store again.
