More room for packs on external Hard drive.

★ Novice

I have no more room on my MacBook Air for more packs but just bought an external hard drive to get more room. How do I do this though, I am struggling ??????

You will need to move your game from your Applications folder to the external and go into Origin > Preferences > Installs & Saves and change the game library location to the external. If you are running Catalina make sure you allow any permission windows that pop up during the location change.

No, if you move it to the external your game will just recreate a new one in the Documents > Electronic Arts folder.
