When I start the installation of XMBC I can't choose an installation folder, XMBC is directly installed in my system hard disk.
Has anyone managed to install it in a specific file or not?
Ty for reading me.

XMBC Has to be installed under program files in order for it to be recognized by Windows as an Accessibility tool. If you install it elsewhere it simply wont work properly, so the installer no longer lets you choose where to install XMBC - You can thank Microsoft for this requirement of accessibility tools!

If you want to run it else where, that's what the portable version is for. But it WONT run as an accessibility tool and therefore wont have full functionality (especially when working with processes running at a higher elevation level (eg. it wont interact with applications running as Administrator - unless you run XMBC itself as administrator).
