How to Move Diablo III 3 to Another Drive/PC Without Re-downloading

To most game players, especially the professional payers, one of the biggest challenges is to upgrade their game drive, improve computer speed.

With the publishing of more and more fascinating computer games, some game players may feel like upgrading the game drive, even moving the installed games to an SSD or another new PC so to speed up the computer performance.

Can I Copy Games Like Diablo 3 to Another Drive or PC? NO!

Considering the security of your personal data and the integrity of your game data, we wouldn't like to suggest you manually copy and move the installed games like Diablo 3 to the new drive or new computer. Basically, there are two reasons why we don't support you to do so.

1. Latest games don't support a copy and paste installation

It's not like the early small computer games which only have a .exe install file that can be copied and installed to another drive or computer anytime. 

Unlike the games with .exe extension, most new games like Diablo 3, WOW, etc. all require you to re-download and re-install them if you tend to play them on another drive or a new PC.

2. Manually copying games may cause game file leftover problems.

Most of the latest new games have an installation file, a local game folder, and even some installation, which sometimes are not saved in the same drive or location. 

Hence, unlike the professional players who know very well about their computers, ordinary people may not even know where they installed the games. In other words, you may not be able to locate and move all the game file to another drive. 

As a result, the game file leftover problem may happen and you may not even be able to launch the game on the new drive nor PC.
