DeanBB.4268 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 No, it is all on ArenaNet's servers. Can you just move the game folder and update the shortcut? There's nothing magic about the install process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sruni.8294 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 The good thing about Guildwars 2 is you can COPY & PASTE the Guildwars 2 folder any where and it will work. What I do is make a copy of the Guildwars2 folder on a USB external hard-drive. That way if I ever have to re-install windows it's simple as copying it back.

Ardenwolfe.8590 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) You can remove the program from your computer. The information will stay on ArenaNet’s server(s). For example, I removed my game from my hard drive four years ago. When I returned and reinstalled, my druid was waiting for me. Hope this answer helped.
