    Hello, I am cross posting this because I am about to rip my hair out of my bald head from this problem. I feel as if the next step is to just do a full fresh re-install of Windows at this point because I am out of options. THE PROBLEM: - When I attempt to install a new game pointed towards my E: drive, it will just blink and do nothing as if I did not click install. When I go into settings > install options > click the drop down for location and select my E: drive, it will just blink and immediately revert back to C: drive. It seems to recognize the drive but is not allowing it. THINGS I
