These are the links for directly downloading the Game files from Official Hoyoverse's Server. These are the exact same files that the Launcher uses to Download and Install the Game/Updates. I just captured the Download link from the Launcher and am sharing it here. This is not an unofficial mirror or edited file; hence it should be safe to use (if You trust Hoyoverse/Mihoyo). You can use any Downloader Application of Your choice to download this. You can also pause the download if the downloader supports it. Useful for those with limited bandwidth or for those Who have trouble with/don't use the Launcher.

Link Captured using an Open-Sourced Advanced Task Manager called Process Hacker. The method used can be found in the first comment of This post. These links can also be found using the official API as stated by u/BuIlDaLiBlE.

Manual Update (by Extracting the Update file on to the existing version of the game) seems to be not working/causing issues for some People (from 2.4.0) due to the changes in the way certain files are updated. It is recommended to use the Links to Download the Update, and to use the Launcher to Install the Update.

Always keep a backup of Your current Game Files and the Downloaded Files, even after the update is finished.

Verify the file name before downloading. MD5 will be added if available so that You can verify the files.

Installation process should be straight forward. Place the downloaded file in "Genshin Impact game" folder found in the Game Installation path and let the launcher verify and install it or You can manually extract the downloaded files into the same folder (wait for the update to go live or else You won't be able to play until then). Detailed Installation Guide linked below.
