      : for those who aren't able able to still download. i figured out the solution. first download steam and then install warframe on your machine. *DON'T LAUNCH.* close steam. now download warframe launcher from official website. download and install. after the small updates are installed, close after the 33gb update starts (OR YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE WHOLE UPDATE AND THEN CONTINUE) (BUT MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD IT IN "X DRIVE\X FOLDER\steamapps\common\Warframe") otherwise trick is not gonna work. now, press WINDOWS KEY + R (opens the run dialog) and type "appdata" (without quotes). open local folder and search for warframe folder. after searching, open warframe folder and then open the downloaded folder. inside the folder you find 3 subfolders. select the "Public" folder (OFC WITHOUT QUOTES) and cut it (dont copy). then paste it into "X DRIVE\X FOLDER\steamapps\common\Warframe" (X is your drive/folder name.)
