  2. Navigate to your current installation directory (for example,C:\GOG Games\Control Ultimate Edition\).

  3. Copy the entire folder to the new destination drive (for example,D:\GOG Games\Control Ultimate Edition\).

  4. In GOG Galaxy, click the Customization (⚙️) icon next to the Play button.

  5. Select Manage Installation → Import Folder.

  6. Choose your new location and confirm.

Galaxy will recognize the existing files and re-index them, no re-download required.

Move Game Files Manually

If you installed using GOG’s offline installers, you can manually move or back up the game folder.

  2. Copy the entire game folder to your new destination drive.

  3. Create a new desktop shortcut by right-clicking the game’s.exe file → Send to → Desktop (create shortcut).

Verify Files After Moving

Once you move or reimport your game:

  1. In GOG Galaxy, click Customization (⚙️) → Manage Installation → Verify / Repair.

  2. Wait for the verification to complete (this ensures no corrupted or missing files).

Restore Save Files

If you moved between drives or systems, double-check that your saves were not affected.

  • Local saves (GOG build):

    C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\My Games\Control\Saves

  • GOG Galaxy Cloud Saves auto-sync when you log in again.

If GOG Galaxy does not detect your new game folder or shows a missing installation path, contact GOG Support for assistance.
