Change engine install location?

Thanks for the advice - these steps worked for me after changing a drive letter:

  1. Rename your existing Unreal Engine directory to something like UE_4.26-Temp
  2. Start a new Install of Unreal Engine via the Epic Games Launcher
  3. Pause the installation once the new download has started
  4. Move all the files from within the Temporary folder to the newly created installation directory - you can simply skip any files that show a permissions error (because the directory is ‘currently in use’)
  5. Then simply resume the download in the Epic Games Launcher and it will begin verifying all the files
