NFS 14 Hot Pursuit Error finding config file directory

When I try to launch the game, it always says this:

"Error trying to find the Directory for the Game Config File:

C:\Users\...\OneDrive\??\Criterion Games\Need for Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit\

This means that you will not be able to save your configuration settings, but the game will run with the default settings"

This causes me only able to use the slowest cars in the game because the fast cars need to be unlocked, and each time I quit the game it automatically goes back to level 1.

The OS is windows 10.

    Can you trying moving the files from OneDrive to your local documents folder? I've seen this question before and that eventually resolved the issue for that player.

    The problem is that my OneDrive does not have anything about NFS in it. Normally when games fail to find a config file at the expected location, they automatically create one, but in my case it doesn`t. I`ve tried to uninstall and reinstall the game several times, both from the Origin client and the Steam client, from where I originally bought the game, but there is still nothing about NFS in the folder. Is there anyway I can create a config file on my own somewhere else and make the game search from there?
