CMake `cmake install` failed

Description

When I install cpr library by IDE, it was wrong. cmake install output message:

[0/1] Install the project...
CMake Error at _deps/zlib-build/cmake_install.cmake:41 (file):
  file cannot create directory: C:/Program Files (x86)/FLowD/lib.  Maybe need
  administrative privileges.

It seems to be installed by default on the C drive, but my CMakeLists.txt is:

if(WIN32) # Install dlls in the same directory as the executable on Windows
    set(CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/src)
    set(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/src)
endif()

But without CLion it installs in the correct directory?

The command in bash is the same as in Clion.

Can confirm. There is something wrong. Especially in regards to zlib. When setting -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release it tries to install zlib from the Debug directory and vise versa. How critical is this bug to you?

It will prevent me from using cmake install to install dependencies, which may later affect CI/CD automatic packaging into an executable file.
