I've not tried this myself, so I would advise caution (messing with regedit can really mess things up if it goes wrong). If you browse to the following location, there are lots of values for default locations (i.e Program Files, Program Files x64, Common Files). I assume that changing this will swap your default install location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
