For me mklink didn’t work as well as no other workaround I found in Internet.
I had 4.9 and 4.10 installed on C:\program files\epic games\ and just cut the “epic games”-folder and pasted it to D:\program files.…

Verifying didn’t work BUT this could be solved by starting launcher with Admin-Rights.
-
With Admin-Rights repairing/verifiying works BUT launcher would create new folders on C:\ all time and I didn’t find any manifest-files/Ini-files to change target-directory
-
SOLUTION: was to uninstall 4.9 and 4.10 via Launcher.
3.1 I just clicked “uninstall”. This DIDN’T deleted my 4.9 or 4.10 folders in D:\program files\epic games\ - they’re still there which is awesome.
3.2 I just restarted launcher and now it noticed folders on D:\ and started verifying BUT failed!
3.3 I had to start Launcher again with Admin-Rights and then verifiying worked!
