How to manage and remove unused or unwanted content to free up hard drive space
In addition to managing your previously installed Call of Duty content, be sure to check out our helpful installation and setup tips to select specific content to install when downloading new games such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4.
Managing Files
Follow the steps below to manage your content.
Please note: When uninstalling full games or game modes, we recommend using the content management system within Call of Duty. If you choose to remove files through your platform’s content management system, your experience may differ and files may be managed individually.
- Launch Call of Duty from your console or PC.
- Select Manage Files in the upper right corner.
- Choose a game title from the available options to either Install or Uninstall content.
Texture Streaming
In addition to content download enhancements, texture streaming technologies have been expanded to help reduce file and download sizes.
With these capabilities, we can cycle content that is less frequently used by players to a streaming cache, avoiding the need to download it directly to your device’s storage. Going forward, more content will be included in this cache.
The On-Demand Texture Streaming setting features two new streaming options to give players more control of their content streaming experience.
Follow the steps below to manage your streaming settings.
- Launch Call of Duty from your console or PC.
- Launch Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 or Call of Duty: Warzone.
- Open the Menu and select Settings.
- Select Graphics and choose the Quality tab.
- Scroll down to On-Demand Texture Streaming and choose one of the available options:
- Optimized – Download additional high-quality texture data to enhance game experience.
- Minimal – Download only the essential texture data to run the game.
