How to set the installation path of the software, for example, I want to install the 7Z software on the D drive, can it be done? If this function is not available, will this function be added in the future?

This issue could be associated with #140 and #194 default path settings as well.

There is already a function in Winget, use winget install Software.Name --location "C:\Folder\Software.Name"

However the support is limited right now.

BUT, we also just got support for Interactive mode winget install Software.Name -i, which is a safer option then --location right now

As @OfficialEsco mentioned, this has been implemented in the client, but it does depend on the installer having support for the install location.
