Hello,

I have to questions on Origin and Uplay.

Question 1: You see origin game installers. I would like for them to download to my main hard drive. If I make a folder called D:/Origin game installers and set my path for my game installers to go here, will they download in that folder?

Question 2: If I download a Ubisoft game from Steam, do I have to re download that game on Uplay or do I need to just have a Uplay account have have Uplay installed to my computer?

Thank you for answering

To change the origin download location, open origin, click on Application Settings, Advanced, and change the folders via there.

For Uplay, no, you won't have to redownload it. It will likely just ask you to log in via uplay, and you may have to download the uplay client if you haven't already.

Thank you for your answer

How would I change the origin games installers? Can I store them in a folder called D:/Origin game installers?

What are origin game installers and do they take up a lot of space? Also, what will happen to my game if I delete them.

Sorry for so many questions, it is just that I am new to this origin thing.
