Is it possible to effectively copy games in this way?

I have a question about moving games on Ubisoft and steam. I installed Assassin's Creed Odyssey and GTAV on a laptop. These I have installed in the games folder of Ubisoft games launcher and in the games common folder of steam. I copied the Ubisoft games launcher and steam to an external hard drive. Is it possible now if I connect this to a PC in the future that I then possibly only need to install the updates and the games are "installed"?

At Steam that's basically no problem.

You can set up a new folder in the SteamClient (via Settings) with a different path and move the games individually over the respective context menu.

You can also manually and completely move the folder. You have to set up the new path in the client.

Both ways should not require reinstalling any games. At least I had no problems with my games.

In a new game installation, you can directly preselect the destination folder. It does not matter if the Steam folder is on an SSD, an internal HD, or external USB HD.

But how it works with the folders of UBI soft games I can't say. I have not tried that yet.

But here you will probably find corresponding videos:
