How to use a different IDE than VS?

The reason why I cannot use VS is not because I cannot afford it, like most people say. It is because it VS is forcing the vast majority of it’s gigs on my C drive, not the D drive I want it on. There is no room on my C drive and I need to keep it as open space as possible to prolong it’s life-span.

It is only 255 gigs and 18 gigs is a pretty big chunk, yet only 2 gigs can be moved over. I have Sublime Text which is much much smaller and I would rather use that, but it seems I am being forced to use VS 2017.

These are both annoying and causing me a migraine, not having any choice in how I want to use my computer and code.

Is there any way I can use Sublime Text or literally any IDE other than VS?

Unfortunately it looks like the target location for UE4 is not changeable at this time (no eta)

This one answers the IDE issue.
