2. Move Overwatch to Another Drive by Re-downloading

If you want to transfer Overwatch to a different drive manually, check the guide below.

Step 1. Start Battle.Net Launcher. Click "Overwatch" > choose "Options", then click "Show in Explorer".

Step 2. Go to the installation location of Overwatch. Move the folder to the target drive through copy-and-paste. After that, you need to correct the location in the launcher.

With the help of an external device, this manual way also can be applied to transfer Overwatch from one PC to another. But we all know that when we install an application, a lot of registry related data is written to different locations on the C drive.

Therefore, we recommend you use the simpler and more secure method by using a PC migration tool.
