I'm at a loss as to where to go with this so maybe somebody in this 
group can help.

I want to install Windows in bootcamp strictly so I can run the Assetto 
Corsa driving simulation.  The problem is I am paranoid and believe in 
frequent backups, which I can't do in bootcamp without adding hard 
drives, backup software, etc.

My solution is to keep everything in a download directory in my Mac 
partition and install it in windows from a flash drive, which is pretty 
much the way bootcamp does it.

This would be fine for a simple executable that I could drag-and-drop 
but I have been told, perhaps wrongly, that I have to download this 
software directly to the bootcamp partition using the steam app, which 
also must be installed in the partition.

Is that the only way to do it or is there a way to download the software 
to the mac as outlined above?
