Hello, I recently updated to Unity 5.2 and noticed visual studio was part of the install. The only down fall to that is you can’t actually select what drive to install visual studio to. So it installed to my 10G C drive instead of 1 TB D drive, since it was so big it overloaded it and now I have to reformat my pc.
So, instead of that is there any way to get visual studio working on another drive? I did try just not installing it and monodevelop crashes now if I have two scripts open at once and I have to reset unity entirely to fix it. Basically I am completely unable to use Unity now since this update, and I am hoping for some help here to fix it, but I have yet to of been helped here so we shall see.
I ran into the same issue yesterday. More precisely I want to install VS Community 2017 with all .NET, C++ and Mobile’s tools, and I discovered:
- the update of VS Community 2017 just upgrade the previous installation without issues (and that’s great!)
- The VS has been installed in a drive with only 10GB free, so I cannot modify the installation adding further SDK as @UbiquitousStudio stated, the drive for the fir installation of VS cannot be chosen.
I’ll do that:
- Uninstall Unity
- Uninstall VS Community 2017
- I’ll install VS Community on the drive of my preference
- Install Unity (I’m pretty sure that the VS installer embedded will use the path used in the step above trying to upgrade an up-to-date version of the compiler.
I’ll keep you posted.
Have a nice day,
Stefano
