The Crew Not Working After I put In a Back Up

[Nolo70986]

So I wiped my hdd to install an ssd and I bought an external hdd to backup all my games because 150Kb/s internet and I backed up The Crew and now im trying to put the backup in uplay (It would be in steam but I got it with my new graphics card) and It just keeps on wanting to download it, how do I make it where I can put in the backup and just play

Thanks

Are you sure that it's actually downloading? I think it's just copying it, it just puts it under Downloads.

no

 

uplay doesn't allow you to move games. you will have to redownload the game entirely. learned this the hard way when moving watch dogs to my hdd

All the files are there but it still downloads so it is just copying it

UPlay is weird...lemme tell you what happened to me. I played the Crew beta a while back and decided to uninstall it recently...but ho ho ho! You can only uninstall Uplay games via UPlay.But since the beta ended and it wasn't in my UPlay inventory or whatever anymore and because you obviously can't install a game you "don't have", I wasn't able to uninstall it.

I just had to delete it and remove the installation entry. But still...wtf Ubisoft.
