I have a pretty annoying problem right now, as somehow the folder in which the steam library was installed on drive E (hardrive) was deleted, but steam still thinks there is a steam library in that drive so whenever I try to install a game to that drive, it fails because of a disk write error. Is there anywhere I can fix this without installing steam?

check the steam main library folder
iirc, its on Setting > Downloads > Under Content Libraries, Steam Library Folders

is the part E on the list?

afaik, Steam will create a new folder on that drive even tho its deleted,
disk write error mostly caused by problems on the drive, check if it has any bad sectors
