EA app writes to OneDrive despite following all OneDrive removal steps
Edit: SOLVED - The problem was in the registry. For whatever reason, Windows still recognized my picture and document folders as the OneDrive ones, and kept re-creating a pictures folder and then EA kept writing to OneDrive documents because of the registry. Solution was found [here](https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/onedrive-folder-keeps-reappearing-even-after/4ad4acc5-6fab-4226-b639-8529b3a3b447), basically I went into Computer\\HKEY\_CURRENT\_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\User Shell Folders and changed the ones that still had the OneDrive directories to use the local directory as it should.
--------------------------------- OneDrive is uninstalled completely [https://imgur.com/UI3vgjq](https://imgur.com/UI3vgjq) and set not to sync [https://imgur.com/8QLWjlI](https://imgur.com/8QLWjlI)
Storage is set to store new files locally [https://imgur.com/NGpGcx2](https://imgur.com/NGpGcx2)
Documents folder is local [https://imgur.com/dLfEAna](https://imgur.com/dLfEAna)
I even manually deleted the OneDrive folder [https://imgur.com/nSCn9vt](https://imgur.com/nSCn9vt)
However, no matter what I do, the EA App creates a OneDrive folder and stores cache files there rather than locally in the local documents folder as it should. The app itself does not have a UI-based option to set a directory for the cache folders. Posting this here as I believe the EA App writes to whatever it thinks is the default documents folder, but I have no clue how it could think that. **Is there yet some other place in Windows that is telling the app that OneDrive is my default folder?**
The crazy thing about all this is I installed Windows myself and specifically declined whenever it asked about OneDrive but that's another story entirely.
