Installing to a different drive

[PatrickAWlson]

What is the recommended way to move BoS from one drive to another?  I want to move the game from E (regular) to C (SSD).

 

So what I did was simply copy and paste.  Didn't think it would work but it seems to.  By coincidence there was an update available - the update installed into C.  Once I read and saved once, the ME reads and saves from C.  The game launched and read from C (huge improvement).

 

Thing is installs usually do registry entries, etc.  Copy and paste does not help with that.  However ... everything seems fine.  At the moment I'm inclined to leave it alone since I can update into and play from the new target drive.

BoS doesn't make any edits to the registry, so you can put it wherever you want - just like with ROF.

@PatrickAWlson wait, so I can just drag and drop the file from one drive to the other?

Thanks for the confirmation.  Pretty nice.

I did put the game on my system "ssd" and so it is a little faster in the loading etc...
