How to change the Repository directory (location)?

By default, in Windows, STM32CubeIDE downloads all firmware dev packages for all MCUs used into a Repository folder under the User folder for the user installing it, e.g.: C:\Users\User Name\STM32Cube\Repository.

I don't want it there, actually not even on that drive at all.

How do I change that Repository path?

I haven't tried this, and I don't run CubeMX from inside IDE, but....

In standalone CubeMX go to Help->Updater Settings. There is a field for repository folder. Try that.
