Moving POE to different hard drive
|
Hello. I have a question. I have 2 hard drives:250 GB (Local Disk, C) and 1TB (1TB is split into 3 partitions: dvestepyatidesyatiy (F, 250GB), pyatidesyatiy (G, 50 GB) and shestsottridtsavosmoy (I, 638GB). Names of partitions are just their size in Russian. What I would like to do is move Path of Exile to my 638GB partition. What I am planning to do is uninstall POE from my C drive, download installer and install/download it to my 638GB partition. I did not have my 1TB drive available, when I installed POE, which is why I would like to move it now. My question is this: Im not going to get banned/suspended for doing this? Because I really like this game and it runs surprisingly well on my computer. Its also my first and only MMO. Here are my specs, just in case:Windows XP SP3, Core 2 Duo 1.86 GHz, 4 GB RAM, PNY NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 730 2GB, DELL Precision 390.
P.S. Thanks for making great free MMO. Not many Diablo-style MMOs I know of, especially with good system requirements and single-player like experience. Also, love that skill tree. Last bumped on Aug 6, 2017, 7:07:37 AM

"You can just move POE's main folder from old drive to a new one. It is WAY faster that reinstalling. And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.

Yaaay i just noticed it is running on my real slow C that is some weird old hard disk type that runs slow AF. Ima just move it to the D xD yaaay no more slow stuff. Maaan this comunity is great, there are answers to all questions.
I love you all, even the A**** vendors that just post stuff to drive the prices down and never actually sell for that price. |

Simply mooving it from a drive to another corrupts the data just like a Vaal orb... now i have to dowload it again... FML

The safe way to do it is to backup the content.ggpk, then properly uninstall the game. Start the installer, select the drive under "options", let it run and then move the old content file to the new directory. If you then click on the game's icon, it should only download whichever files were newly added, i.e. if there was a patch.
