Well I hope that you uninstall it from the Control Panel- Add/Remove Programs. Usually that uninstalls it unless if in the uninstall wizard you somehow selected repair or some other option. Once the game is on your computer I don`t believe that you can change it`s location. If you uninstall and then re-install, you should be able to change the directory of where you can find your game. For instance most install wizards begin by asking if you agree or not with the User License. After that there should be a step where you are shown where the game is being installed. Usually it檚 something along the lines of C:\windows\games\gameName or what ever. Next to this or below it there should be a button where it says %26quot;Change Dir%26quot; or just %26quot;Change%26quot;. Click on it and then type the name of the folder where you want to install the game. I usualy use C:\games\gameName. Once you do that click ok and if a pop up window appears saying %26quot;folder does not exist... Doyou whish to create it?%26quot; click yes or ok. Follow the rest of the installation process and you`re done.How to change install directory?When you're installing software, no matter what it is, it generally gives you the option of where to install it to. Try uninstalling, and watch each and every step it goes through.How to change install directory?Have you tried uninstalling it using the Add/Remove programs in My Computer? Or if you have downloaded it with a download manger, is it still on the projects list? You have directed it on a wrong intallation path, but maybe if its setup is still there as a separate icon, you can hopefully redirect its path, using the Browse option.You can try finding the game's intallation setup in My Documents, if so try right clicking it, then choose Delete.
