    Since it took about 18 hours to download the install files to one computer I want to copy the install files to 2 other computer but use a different license for each computer so we can all play together.

    I'm only trying to avoid the download time. Is this possible.

    So far I can't find where the install files are downloaded to.

    I would imagine that the install files downloaded directly to c:\program files [(x86]\StarCraft II
    What I would do is, start the install on the other machines, THEN copy the files over, run the installer again, and see if it verifies everything....

    ...or find someone with a disc to borrow.

    Ok, I figured it out if anyone else would like to do the same.

    The install files are downloaded to a folder called SC2-WingsOfLiberty-enUS-Installer under a folder of your choosing when you started the download. Just copy the entire folder to another computer (about 8GB) and run the installer program.

    Copying the game itself?

    Hi, what if you no longer have the installer files downloaded, but do want to install on another computer without waiting for a slow download (poor internet). Can you still copy the game to another computer along with some registry keys?

    Any hints would be appreciated.
