How to change installation path in Visual Studio 15?

Hello, for some reason I'm reinstalling VS15, and I ran into this problem: You can't change the installation path. I can’t install it in drive C, because there are about 5 GB left (Yes, I “littered” the system)

I deleted all the folders associated with VS15 (checked by folder search), as they wrote that this could be due to the fact that there were IDE files left somewhere, but that didn't help. Do not offer other IDEs, since I need VS for my coursework.

No way, he will still put his gigabytes in C, it's Microsoft (micro-software!), What do you mean.
The easiest way is to enlarge the C partition somehow.
You can move Program Files somewhere with the help of dances with a tambourine. But I can't guarantee the performance of the skewed Windows software, in which "C:\Program Files" is hardcoded.

How to change the installation path?

KO prompts you to select an item other than default (default) and follow the prompts of the installer.
UPD: the path must be specified in the parameters when starting the installer

And how will it help me? I read, looked at guides for creating such links, etc. But I did not understand the essence of the application in this situation

Check that all studio components are removed. Check if the target folder is empty. If non-empty - a list of files and folders in the studio.
In 95% of cases, the refusal to change the installation path is due to the fact that something is already installed and the studio is supplied.
What do you understand about links? The advice is not bad in principle, it may even work.
