I found an easy way to move my Dragon Age installation to my secondary, solid-state hard drive! This methods keeps all settings and mods intact! Instructions (Windows Vista, 7, and 8 only) This assumes that the directory on drive “C” is the one that Dragon Age was originally installed to (the “original” folders), and the installation will be moved to drive “E” (the “final” folders). Keep in mind that your original Dragon Age installation paths may be different! You can modify both the original as well as the final file directory. It may be worth creating backups of your original folders just in case! Move folder C:\program files (x86)\Dragon Age to e:\ Delete C:\program files (x86)\Dragon Age\ Move folder C:\Users\username\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age to a new folder you manually create e:\dragon age user data Delete C:\Users\username\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age Click the Start button, type cmd and run cmd.exe as an ADMINISTRATOR Type mklink /j "C:\program files (x86)\Dragon Age\" "e:\dragon age" mklink /j "C:\Users\username\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age" "e:\dragon age user data\dragon age" Note that this file movement method is still reliant on having access to the registry entries of the original drive C. If you ever want to install Dragon Age onto a completely new computer, while still allowing access to all your settings and mods, I am guessing the following should work: Install Dragon Age with the regular installer onto the new computer (to create relevant registry entries) Patch the game Delete the following folders: C:\program files (x86)\Dragon Age C:\Users\username\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age Connect the solid state drive to the computer Run the CMD prompts noted earlier
