Please give as much information as you can, replace/remove italicized text.

Describe the bug A short description of what the problem is While attempting to make a backup of my NMM files and mods for Fallout 4 onto the multiple terabyte expasion drive I have bought specifically for backups, I keep getting told how little space there is in C drive and denied. I'm not TRYING to backup onto C drive!

Environment

Please remember to attach any trace logs you get in connection to this problem. Without these it will often be very hard to track down the bug.

no trace, it just denies the backup even starting

To Reproduce How to reproduce the problem It happens every time I try to make the backup

Additional information Anything that could help track down this problem, other software used, screenshots, etc.

Should be the same issue as mentioned in #273 - NMM uses %TEMP% for intermediate storage for creating the backup before it's moved (and %TEMP% is typically mapped to the C:\ drive).
