How to change the install location via EA app?

I don't know why, but the latest update for me is saying 112GB? What is going on?  I have Jedi Survivor downloaded on the EA app but didn't expect an update to happen, and now I have no space for it...

So, let me get this clear. EA has made it so I can only install their launcher on my C: drive? There is no other way to change it to a different drive, despite the option being available in the install app? Why is this the case? My C: drive is not an option here; my PC is set up so specific files go to specific places. I don't want the app or the service if I cannot customize the install location. This is a big mistake on EA's part and a deterrent from buying anything from them in the future. Is there a solution or not?

So the community staff are actually lying about being locked to the C: drive. I don't know why they are but you can absolutely install battlefield on other drives, I have it on my E: drive (12TB HDD) and have switched it around before. I'm pretty sure I just moved the files to the destination I wanted and ran the application from that location (not through the launcher but through the actual files), but I can't remember. It IS possible to run it from places OTHER than the C: drive though, also posting a link to a photo to prove it.
