Custom Unreal Engine Failing to Install

Hi yall, I'm trying to set up the environment for modding Satisfactory at the moment, but I'm running into an error while trying to install the custom engine linked by the modding documentation (https://github.com/satisfactorymodding/UnrealEngine/releases) I've got all three of the files in the same folder, but I'm repeatedly getting the error shown in the screenshot. Attempting to try again or cancel install and restart the install doesn't help. I am telling the installer to install into the same folder it and the bin files are currently in, if that could be the reason why it's not working..? Other than that, I'm stumped at the moment.

Solution:
changing the install directory to be closer to the root of the drive (E:\Unreal Engine - CSS) seems to have worked!

how much space do you have left on that drive?

hmm try either moving the install directory further "up" or activating long file path support in windows

issue could potentially be that the long file name caused problems since I'm installing it onto a slow hard drive

(ty for marking as solved! I was waiting for the install to finish just to make sure, but was just about to mark it myself)
