Trying to update my game and origin keeps telling me to choose a new folder

 Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for this! Mine just started doing this today, and I was about to lose my mind. Never thought to run as administrator.

To move your games to a new hard drive is relatively easy, just follow the steps below and you should be good to go:

1. Copy your Origin Game Library folder to wherever you want it.
   • The default location is “C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\”
2. Set the Origin Game Library Location to the new location.
   • In Origin open up Settings
   • Select the “Installs & Saves” tab.
   • Under “Game library location” select “Change folder…”
   • Locate the new folder.
3. Start a download for each game you’ve moved.
   • In Origin open up “My Game Library”
   • Find each game you’ve moved.
   • Press “Download”
   • Origin will skip downloading any files that are already there and update any that need to be updated.
4. When Origin is done updating each game it will be ready to play.

All you need to fix this problem is to Run Origin with Administrator Privileges through clicking on Properties, and then go to compatibility and Check the box that says "Run this program as an Administrator". You can Press on "Change settings for all users" and apply it for all.
