How to Copy Vanguard Patch Files
- 1). Click "Start."
- 2). Click "Computer."
- 3). Double-click "C:\." Double-click "Program Files."
- 4). Double-click "Sony Online Entertainment." Copy the "Vanguard" folder. Paste this folder into a removable media drive. When Vanguard patches, it changes all files that have changed instead of using a specific patch folder or file, so you need to copy the entire folder if you want to patch an installation without running Vanguard's patcher.
