December CU shipped with a security fix which – by default – blocks deployments if the temporary storage location is not on the C-Drive.
To enable a different drive it is required enable it using powershell code like the following:
$farm = Get-SPFarm
# specify the drive which holds the tempory folder
$farm.AllowedContentDeploymentTempFolderDirectories = "X:\"
$farm.Update()
# specify the drive which holds the tempory folder
$farm.AllowedContentDeploymentTempFolderDirectories = "X:\"
$farm.Update()
You can identify the configured temporary files folder path in the Content Deployment Settings page in the Central Administration or by running the following PowerShell command:
[Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Administration.ContentDeploymentConfiguration]::GetInstance().TemporaryFolder

I assume the default location is c:\ProgramData\ContentDeployment ? I ran the PowerShell command and got that.

Yes. That’s correct.
