BF 4 moving problem

I know this is not off topic,but please help me
So my hdd is separated in Local disc C and D.
My local disc C got kinda stuffed so i moved bf to D and deleted it from LC:C .
Now when i start origin i cant play bf i says download, but my Origin game folder is also there and bf 4 is inside installed.
sorry for the long post

  • @CHF_Duve If I understand you correct you need to have or it is best to have origin and your games on the same drive. Have you tried repair game after you moved everything? A small trick I use when I format my PC Edit.....

    1- Copy and past each game folder to external drive

    2- Copy and past the my documents game folder to external drive holds your game settings.

    3- Once you install origin on the drive you want then start the game d/l let it get to 2%

    4- Pause d/l and fully close origin.

    5- Copy and past your game folder back into correct area / eg- Game BF4 installed E drive copy the contents of BF4 folder on external drive and past it into folder origin made for BF4

    6- When it is done pasting back then open origin again and resume d/l in about 2 min poof all done

    7 Move a copy of your BF4 my documents back to your C drive my documents and you will not have to set up your in game settings again.

    To repair BF4...

    1- Open Origin

    2- Go to Games tab in Origin

    3- Right mouse click on BF4

    4-Pick repair game.
