How to Change Adobe Photoshop CC Install Location?

"Hi guys, do you know how to change the install location of Adobe Photoshop CC to another drive? I recently upgraded Photoshop to the latest version - Adobe Photoshop CC 2017 and it's amazing. 
But it takes too much space on my C drive. My C drive has only 100GB. Most applications, programs, and software are all installed on the C drive, which leaves me quite a small space for my computer to run. And then my computer becomes slower and slower.

I was thinking that if I could move and change the Adobe Photoshop install location and move other big applications into another drive, it would save me quite a lot of space for speeding up my PC. But how to transfer installed apps to a new location? If you do know how to do the job, please let me know. Thank you."
