OK

Unfortunately, in setup-node current software structure, this feature cannot be added.

Hello @CNOCTAVE, Thank you for taking the time to submit this feature request and for outlining its rationale. While we recognize the potential benefits of a custom Node.js installation path, implementing it would add complexity around validation, permissions, and security. Given these challenges and the current lack of community traction, we’ve decided not to pursue this feature at this time. We appreciate your feedback and encourage future suggestions. If community interest increases, we’ll be open to revisiting the idea. Thanks again for contributing, and we welcome your feedback for future enhancements.
