Hello,
you can change the output directory inside profile configuration, as detailed here: https://www.akeeba.com/documentation/akeeba-backup-documentation/configuration.html#basic-configuration
Please note that you should output your backup in a folder under your site's root, not directly under your site root.
Regarding the upgrade to Joomla 4, it really depends by the extensions you installed. If they are already compatible with Joomla 4, the upgrade process will be very smooth, otherwise you will have to trouble shoot each one of them.
I strongly suggest to test the upgrade locally, check that everything works and then repeat the steps on the live site.
