1. Change the Default Library Location

Epic Games Launcher uses a default directory for downloading and installing assets. To change this directory, follow these steps:

  1. Open Epic Games Launcher: Launch the Epic Games Launcher on your computer.
  2. Navigate to Settings:
  • Click on your profile icon or the Settings icon (usually a gear icon) in the lower-left corner of the Epic Games Launcher.
  1. Locate the Installation Settings:
  • Scroll down to the Library section in the settings.
  1. Change the Library Location:
  • Under the Library section, you’ll see an option to Change Location or Manage. Click on it to select a new directory where you want to store your downloaded assets and installed games.
  1. Select New Directory:
  • Choose the new directory where you want your assets to be downloaded and installed. The Epic Games Launcher will start using this new directory for future installations.
  1. Apply and Restart:
  • Save the changes and restart the Epic Games Launcher to ensure the new settings take effect.
