How to install Visual Studio Express 2013 on ONLY an external Hard Drive (not on C at all)? [closed]

I currently do not have my laptop and don't know how long it will be until I get it back. I have an external hard drive and access to university computers, but they don't let us install programs on the computer, so I can't use Visual Studio off the machines. Only my external. I know I can install SOME of the files on the external, but it still wants to install ~2.5gigs on C:

Is there any way to install the whole thing on the external, or perhaps use a friend's computer to install it, then move all the files it puts in C: onto the external?

See this question: Can Visual Studio Express run from USB drive?

So in short, the answer is no. In long, it would be possible to create a virtual machine with VMWare or similar, and put that machine image on the external drive, then install Visual Studio Express on there ...
