Is there a way to do game downloads on a laptop and transfer them to another PC?

I want to buy Red Dead Redemtion 2, but my download speed is very slow. I would now like to know if it is possible to download the game elsewhere on my laptop at a faster internet speed and then transfer it to my PC.
I could then of course drag the entire game onto a hard drive and transfer it, but I wonder if the copy protection is there and prevents it. Do you have any experience?

I loaded a game onto an external hard drive myself a few days ago and then transferred it to my PC. This is absolutely no problem

Sure, download is download. For example, Load onto a large USB 3 stick, then transfer it to the PC. It's pretty quick.

If you bought it on Steam, no copy protection will intervene anywhere, since the game only works with the Steam account anyway. Otherwise, instead of transferring it with the hard drive, you can also transfer it over your home network or connect the PC with a LAN cable on the laptop and then transfer it.

That would be great. So then just copied the game folder from the C: \ Program Files or somehow via Steam?

After downloading the game on the laptop, you can easily drag the game onto the hard drive, the copy protection just does not let you start the game. However, once the game is on your PC, the Rockstar Games Launcher should be able to find the game and it should work fine.

Well, you can buy Red Dead Redemption on Steam, but it runs on the Rockstar Launcher, which is a bit strange.
And yes, I could do it over the home network.

I then simply copied the program and dragged it onto the PC

Okay thank you very much!

Okay thanks

Ok, I didn't know that. The question then is, can the Rockstar Launcher scan game files lying around and then make them "playable" again like Steam, Origin and Uplay.
