Describe the bug

So i tried to launch Modrinth and it started to update and then i got this error. It tried to install to C:\Program files\ when it should install to D:\modrinth\Modrinth App\
And when i click retry nothing happens.
I think putting it in Program Files could solve the issue but for example i have almost no space on C:\ and i would rather have Modrinth installed in D:\
