You have to go into Application Settings and go to Advanced. Unfortunately, you can only have one install location unlike Steam.

Telling someone to Google something is against the CoC.

I got a warning point for it once. Because the mods are dicks sometimes.

The guy was looking for an image of a specific computer part, so I said he should google it (he had tried it I found out later). Legitimate suggestion. But nope. Warning point.

/rant

 

Bottom line. I dislike the mods. (some of them)

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

You have to change the default install location in the Origin Settings,  Download the game, and then Switch back the settings when you're done.. i've had to do this myself so i know it works.

 

Open Origin Client, Application settings > Advanced > Downloaded Games: Change...
