[Remote Development] Change Jetbrains Client location

Hello,

I want to use the remote development functionality to develop with IntelliJ Idea and WSL2 on a Windows machine. Thing is, our company has an AppLocker policy that development tools can only be excecuted when they are located in a specific folder (for example C:\Develop). 

Which brings me to my problem, I noticed from the logs that, it downloads the remote client on the windows host in the AppData\local folder for example: ‘AppData\Local\JetBrains\JetBrainsClientDist\JetBrainsClient-243.21565.129.jbr.win.zip-16e1330d43.ide.d\bin\jetbrains_client64.exe’ and tries to run it, which is blocked by our AppLocker policy, because the client is not in the designated dev folder. Is there a way to configure IntelliJ to store the client in a specific folder?

Thanks for your help
