Unable to install nRF Connect SDK to a non-default location on Windows 11

Hello,

I am trying to install the nRF Connect SDK v3.0.1 on Windows 11 (version 24H2 build 26100.4061). In the VSCode -> nRF Connect(the plugin) -> Manage SDKs

I can successfully install the SDK using the default location (c: ncsv3.0.1). However, if I try to install it on d: ncsv3.0.1 or e: ncsv3.0.1, the installation will fail with error code -4058.

[22:57:56] nrfutil-sdk-manager sdk,install,v3.0.1,--sdk-path,d:\ncs\v3.0.1: Calculating SDK checksum
[22:58:02] nrfutil-sdk-manager sdk,install,v3.0.1,--sdk-path,d:\ncs\v3.0.1: Verified previously download file: success

Any suggestions to fix the error? I have limited space in the C drive, and would appreciate installing the SDK on another drive. Cheers
