Moving game to another drive

Hi

Wondering if anyone could help out with a minor issue, please. I installed the game on my D: (owing to a lack of space on my primary drive) however, I now want to move the game to my SSD primary C: drive. Would I just copy the ESO folder from D and put it into C: and then create a shortcut to the launcher, or will windows still think it is still installed on D: and might have problems with the game and addons?

Thanks

    Odd I cannot edit. For some reason, my C drive has become a face icon :|

    You can move the whole game to another drive. I've done it in the past.
    After you move it, simply start the launcher and select "Repair", it will verify the game files and after that, the game works just fine.

    The only thing that will not work properly is the windows uninstaller from the control panel should you ever try to uninstall ESO using your control panel.
