Halo MCC is installing data on the wrong drive

[Krythic]

Much like the title says. I just noticed that a massive amount of my C drive is being consumed. After looking into it, it appears as though MCC has installed Halo CE and Reach on the C Drive, which is not the drive that I have assigned to Steam. I use the D drive for games, which is my 1TB. The C drive is my boot drive, and only has 250gigs. At this rate, I will not be able to install all of the later games coming to MCC, because my C drive won't be able to hold them. I only have 70 gigs or so left.

Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm fine with reinstalling MCC, but only if it will fix itself this time. Here's a picture showing how much space MCC is taking up on my C drive:

Everything in red is MCC related.

What can I do to fix this? I've already double checked and my intallation directory is correctly set; no other games install to the C drive. Just the MCC.

Hi, so I had the same problem and found a fix. If you're using windows 10, go to start>settings>system>storage and click on "change where new content is saved" then change all of the options to (in my case) D drive (not just the apps as I tried with just apps but didn't work). Obviously you don't want this setup permenantly so I would suggest switching everything back after install.

This worked for me so hopefully it works for you :)

you know that you can choose the Drive when you download a game right?

It ignores the drive that I choose. Honestly, stop acting like such a piece of ♥♥♥♥, and insinuating that everyone around you is stupid. That's something that a petty and disgusting human being does.

it could have been possible to have overseen it.
