How can i save the games?

July 25, 2004 6:00:47 AM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
Hello,

i have one question, i downloaded desciples II whit an amount of nearly 2 gigs. Now i am asking me, if i have to download it again to install it in another path on my harddrive. Its in the standard path which is given by stardock central on c: but i normaly have no games on my maindrive (only, os and applications, not so much space left) so i want to move the games to my gaming drive d:

Is it possible to reeinstall the games without downloading it again?

thank you in advance!

You can change where your games are installed by going into Stardock's Central's settings. I believe each game can have its own installation path.

(regarding reinstallation), that I'm not sur eof. I would first try to simply MOVE the directory to a different place and try running it there.

You could also go into Tools->Settings->Advanced and set the Achive/Restore folder to be on the other drive. Then use the File->Archive Application function to archive the game to that folder. Then go to Tools->Settings->General-> and check the Prompt To Enter Installation Directory. Now do a File->Restore Archive and point it to the new archive you made on the second drive. Then you can install it whereever you like.

Once that is all done, you can delete the version on the Main Drive and then delete the archive on the second drive.

That will also get the game moved for you.
