Changing the Valorant install directory isn't as straightforward as clicking a button, unfortunately. Valorant doesn't allow you to directly change the install directory through the client once it's installed. However, you can uninstall the game and then reinstall it, choosing the desired install location during the installation process. Make sure to back up your game settings!

Just reinstall the game, dude. Moving files around sounds like a hassle. Plus, fresh install means fresh start!

Actually, there's a workaround without reinstalling. First, move the Valorant and Riot Client folders to your desired location. Then, uninstall the Riot Client (not Valorant!). Now, reinstall the Riot Client and point it to where you moved the folders. It should recognize the existing installation.

Tried moving the files without doing it the right way and messed up my install. Had to reinstall anyway. Just uninstall and reinstall in your preferred location to save the headache.
