@RayD_01 spotted that the cache folder has been moved to the \BattfieldGameData.kin %appdata% folder out of MyDocuments folder. Guys let me know if you can use OneDrive again!

This is a painful issue that EA likely won't resolve from what I've been reading. Here is a great workaround, especially for those using OneDrive with work credentials.
This process will create a symlink (shortcut) in the Documents folder pointing to the Battlefield 2042 folder in the AppData\Local folder, where it should be...
1. Close Battlefield 2042 and make sure it isn't running
2. Delete the "cache" folder in "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Battlefield 2042"
3. Move the "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Battlefield 2042" folder to the desktop
4. Start Menu > Command Prompt > Right Click > Run as administrator
5. Paste the following command ensuring that you have the right USERNAME in this command (notepad helps)
mklink /D "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Battlefield 2042" "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Battlefield 2042"
7. You will get a response "symbolic link created for..."
8. In your Documents folder you will now see a shortcut called Battlefield 2042
9. Copy the folders in your Desktop\Battlefield 2042 folder to the "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Battlefield 2042" folder
10. Launch Battlefield 2042
11. You may get a pop-up, choose local
The game will load and if you check OneDrive, you should see it removing the folders/files since they aren't in the Documents folder anymore.
