    Hi,

    this is possible but use a different approach.

    Move the game folders to another location. Run Origin and start the downloads. When downloading, pause the downloads and exit Origin.

    Now move the game folders to the Origin game folder. After copying, log back into Origin and resume the downloads. Origin will check

    the existing files and only downloads missing and corrupted files.

    Best regards,
