7DTD Mod Launcher wont let me choose install path?

Hello forum,

So I recently downloaded the 7DTD Mod Launcher and have been having a blast using it. I could never figure out how to install mods manually and when I tried it never worked for me. Using this launcher is amazing, but I keep running in to one persistent issue- it installs ALL mods into my C drive. That is an issue because for some reason I only have around 150 gb on that drive, and that drive has all of my necessary files to keep my computer running. I run out of space on that drive, and I'm told to make room so the computer can still function.

I have over 2 TB on my E drive, but the issue is I can't figure out how to make mods save to my E drive on the advanced mode of the launcher. Even moving my files manually doesn't help- it just needs to reinstall the mods back onto the C drive, which I can't do, ESPECIALLY if I want to use the advanced launcher, which will let me install multiple mods, but keep them separate as to prevent incompatibilities between mods. The launcher gives no obvious options for how to reroute the install path I want the files to go to- only a text field saying where the computer will install the mods (on my C drive), and it WILL NOT let me alter it.

Any help on how to install mods on the advanced launcher to my E drive instead of my C drive would be much appreciated!

Sorry for the confusion! If you select the "mod" called "Starting Splash Screen, you'll see a Destination Folder for Mods, along with a blue folder. Click on the blue folder to select your new path.
