Why is there no option to Move a game to a different location??
I figured this our my self.
Fix for doing this is quite simple. And would be very easy to implement in the EA Play app. Its one single registry entry which had to be changed:
1. close the ea play app and make sure you close it in the task bar too.
2. Copy (Do not Cut) the Jedi Fallen Order folder to your desired location. (Take note of the Path)
3. To be safe rename the original game folder to Jedi Fallen Order.old (Don't delete just now to be safe)
4. open Regedit as admin:
Ctrl+F to Find, enter: Jedi Fallen Order
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Respawn\Jedi Fallen Order
Change the install dir Key in the right hand panel to your new location i.e. F:\Origin Games\Jedi Fallen Order\
Next 2 entries may not be needed but I did these also:
hit F3 (to find next entry):
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{D00A89F1-2D8C-4589-B1D1-73A6544E3B1F}
Change the 3 strings on the right hand panel to match your new location (only the ones which have your old location) leave the C: alone (display icon, Helplink and install location)
Hit F3 for next:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Respawn\Jedi Fallen Order
Same again here change the install dir string to your new location
thats it. Close regedit
start up EA Play and it should be there click on the 3... on the Game to see details or properties and your new location should be there.
start the game to test.. then delete the old folder.
