Can UWPNuGetPackages be moved to another drive?
I'm trying to make a UWP app in Visual studio, but the NuGet package files have been *huge*. They just don't fit on my SSD, but I do have an HDD I could theoretically use.

After a bunch of tinkering with different Visual Studio and NuGet configs, I've gotten the NuGetPackages folder onto another drive without Visual Studio yelling at me, but now it's giving me the error `The local source 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\UWPNuGetPackages\' doesn't exist`. I can hardly find any reference to this folder anywhere on my computer or online. Is there some way to also get Visual Studio to recognize this on another drive?
