Windows Installer: how to change default data folder

I use Windows Installer (5.8) to get Nuxeo run on Windows Server 2008. It allows choosing the app folder (containing tomcat and app) but automatically store data in C:/ProgramData/Nuxeo without any chance to change that. The prolem is the C: drive is for operating system and applications, and not ideally to store data because its capacity is not high while Nuxeo is supposed to store a lot of data, files...

Is there anyway to choose data folder to be put in other drive right from installation process?

After installation, I try to move data folder to other drives with Admin panel. Yes the data now stored in other place but I think that there are still many things working with files in C:/ProgramData/Nuxeo. Is there any way to totally move things out of C:/ProgramData/Nuxeo to folder on other drive?

Thank you for your reply.

Regarding the Nuxeo/ConfigFile key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software, it may be under "Wow6432Node" (this is a subset of the registry exposed to 32bit applications on 64bit systems).
