Give the filesystem on the device a name - a label.
It has got none so currently the UUID of the partition is used.

It can be adjusted - how to do that depends on the filesystem.

What filesystem is it?

lsblk -f

It’s btrfs I tried ext4 but hard drive wasn’t working so I chose btrfs

I have zero experience with BTRFS.
It looks like you just need to assign a label, a name (like: MySteamDrive)

Normally this is done when the filesystem is created, but it can be done after as well.

I do not quite understand what that means - but I can’t give advise anyway when it comes to BTRFS. :man_shrugging:

Oh thanks for helping anyway what I meant was game says path name is too long so I changed folder name called “SteamLibrary” to just “S” because of that game runs and works
