On Old Computer:
Find file where programs are located (Can find by opening the Options tab in the Big Fish Game Manager. Click on the Downloads tab. This will show you Installation Location.)
They are generally in C: Program Files (X86).

Open the Program Files (X86) folder, select the game you wish to copy, right click on the game and send to an eternal (USB thumb) drive. Can select as many games as external drive will hold. When the transfer has completed, place the external drive in your new computer.

New Computer:
Open Program Files (X86) folder. Open the files on the external drive and drag then to the Program Files (X86) folder. Wait until all games transfer.

Open the Game Manager. Select the Options tab, then the Downloads tab. i wink n the Find Games tab,
select “Start”
Games should now be in the Game Manager and indicate that they need to be Activated. Activate the game.

If the game show up as “Buy” – “Play”, go to Purchase History in the Game Manager and select Install Now. This activates the game. If the game shows up as “Activate” in Purchase History, activate the game. Sometimes have to do this a couple of times.


If the game shows up with “Download” in Purchase History, click on “Download” and a window will shortly show up that allows you to buy the game. Look towards the bottom of this window and select “Reactivate” in the “Already purchased this game? Reactivate it.” Sometimes have to do this a couple of times.
