How to Move Genshin Impact Files to Another Drive
Last updated
Ever wondered how to move your Genshin Impact files to a different drive? Maybe you’re running out of space, or just want to reorganize your gaming setup.
Let’s dive right into how you can transfer your Genshin Impact game files from one drive to another without losing any progress.
Quick Steps to Transfer Genshin Impact Files
First things first, you’ll need to close Genshin Impact if it’s running. Then, head over to the folder where Genshin Impact is currently installed. By default, it’s often in a folder named ‘Genshin Impact’ on your drive.
Once there, simply copy the entire Genshin Impact folder and paste it into the new location where you want it on another drive. Ensure you have enough space on the target drive for the game files.
Ensuring a Smooth Transition
After moving the files, you’ll need to direct the game launcher to the new location. Open the launcher, go to settings, and update the game file path to the new location. This step is crucial to ensure that the game runs smoothly from its new home.
If you encounter any hiccups, a simple reinstall might do the trick. Just make sure to point the installer to the new location right from the get-go.
