Windows install requires .ova in C drive?

I read the install requirements of 10 GB disk space, but installation failed. I have plenty of room, just not in C drive. I specified install in E drive, but the installer still attempts to put the huge .ova files in C: with no apparent option otherwise. Is there a way to direct the installer to use another drive?

Good day,

That is a Limitation sadly imposed by NSIS. Copying the installer in ist entirety onto E: should negate this issue. That is one of the reasons why I’m currently rewriting the Installer, UI and interactive user guide from the ground up with an entirely different base for each.

Have a nice day,

Ego
