    Hey @Kaans042 you can try the following steps:

    1. Copy your Origin Game Library folder to wherever you want it.
      • The default location is “C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\”
    2. Set the Origin Game Library Location to the new location.
      • In Origin open up Settings
      • Select the “Installs & Saves” tab.
      • Under “Game library location” select “Change folder…”
      • Locate the new folder.
    3. Start a download for each game you’ve moved.
      • In Origin open up “My Game Library”
      • Find each game you’ve moved.
      • Press “Download”
      • Origin will skip downloading any files that are already there and update any that need to be updated.
    4. When Origin is done updating each game it will be ready to play.
