Hey everyone,
I have been having a lot of trouble getting adobe after effects cc to install on my PC (windows 8). When installing I get held up at 42% with an exit error 7 message. When I click "more details" I am told that after effects is trying to install to drive S: (that drive doesn't exist on my computer)
In the Adobe CC app preferences the install directory is in my C;\program files (x86)\Adobe
I have installed almost every other app on my computer with no issue and they are installing to the proper directory on my C: drive
So I'm not exactly sure what the problem is.
Please help!

I've already tried that solution. I've even gone as far as re-installing my OS and re-configuring my drives. It's still trying to install to a path that doesn't exist.

Change Install Location for Applications
With the CC application opened, choose the little gear icon in the upper right corner and then choose Preferences. In the Preferences screen select Creative Cloud and then look for the Install Location drop down

I have also done that multiple times already. I have picked a few different folders on my C: drive and it still is trying to install to drive S:
