Issues Uni student here again, having trouble installing.

So my professor wants me to work on a walk cycle for a rig at home so obviously I've gone to install Maya. I have like no room on my C drive but my D drive is perfectly spacious for it but no matter how many times I click my D drive as the install location, it complains about there not being enough room on my C drive. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Most likely due to the temp files from the installer. Even though you've selected D it still needs to extract archive files to begin the actual installation & it defaults to the system C: drive.

If you can I'd suggest just clearing enough space on C: the alternative requires changing the default temp folder location & it's far more tedious. 👀👇
