Origin game installer
I'm trying to install battlefield 3 again, I got origin installed onto my d drive and the game installers go into a folder on the d drive as well. When I go to download bf3 it wants to install it onto my c drive which is my windows partition.

How do I make it install onto my d drive?

Or you can change the origin game install directory in general settings, I had a blonde moment and didn't realize the options tab was scrollable

That is the Origin folder; the Origin Games folder is not asked for.

Unless they changed that in the last month.

@OP, game location is right in the settings's main tab?

Yup, my old brain doesn't remember stuff I did recently, but remember stuff I did years ago perfectly! Never trust old, retired farts with recent events, LOL
