Visual Basic has insufficient disk space

0

I'm trying to download visual basic 2010 Express But every time I click on install button this shows up to me:

When I try to select a different destination folder, I get the same error.

When I click on Ignore, it starts to download. Then it tells me to Exit.

Even though you select a different drive, visual studio will install some components in your root drive. In your case the C:\ drive. It forces you to install in the root drive because some components like .net framework and stuff like that work directly with your operating system so is usually installed in your C:\windows\system32.

In a nut shell, there is no way to avoid that 2.2gb space it needs for visual studio to work correctly
