How to download

[mhl]

I just recently moved and the internet sucks at my new house, but my universities internet is incredible. I just purchased a corsair voyager gtx so I could download games using my schools internet and just transfer them to my gaming computer when I get home. The problem is the only laptop I have is a macbook air.  Is there a way to just download a windows game straight to the flash drive using my mac? I don't intend to use the mac to play games I just need it to transfer games so I can get them to my gaming PC.

No. There is no way unless if you Boot Camp install Windows to the mac.

How often do you see a modern game with an offline installer?

 

Steam does not have them.

Origin does not have them.

Uplay does not have them.

Galaxy GOG does not have them.

How do I do that?

you can just download them through torrents. you are not pirating because you actually paid for the game. problem solved

edit: make sure you download the game without cracks and stuff so you won't get malware and/or banned

What I recomend doing is getting virtual box and downloading an image from microsoft.  https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/  These do have an expiration date so every once in a while you will have to redownload a new image.  What you can then do is connect your real usb stick then connect it to your virtual pc.  what you would do is go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common and once the game is done installing move the game you want to the flash drive.  When you get home copy the game folder into the same C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common.  Not garanteeing this will work im just saying its something you could try.

What I do, is that I run boot camp and Windows 10

i partition one drive as external D:\ (this is your external drive you're moving to widows)

download games onto D:\

on your pc you can change it so a game "installs" to D:\ and then you have your full liberary
