@JJeepStuff Hey, you don't need to download again. You can use the steps on this page to transfer across your game files, Log in with your main account to finish the processThen when you have the 2nd account just log into this on the 2nd system. It should detect the existing games and let you play without issue.

Hi @JJeepStuff!

Well technically, you can try to copy the game folder from one computer to the other, but don't now if origin will recognize it as installed.    

Give it a try. In case, after you transferred the game folder, try to initiate the download anyway.

Let me know.

Regards
