      I am having a problem starting the game and trying to redirect my mods & maps file. I'm not sure how to change the path in settings.

        You can change its path in the FAF client:

            Which path do you have chosen? Can you make a screenshot about the error, please?

                My solution was radical, I blocked the OneDrive, after dozens of pop ups like this.

                        @doubleu The 1st image is when I try to change the location to the maps folder and the 2nd image is when I try creating a new folder and labeling it 'mods' but it shows that.

                          Does the following path work?

                          C:\FAF\
                          

                          or

                          D:\FAF\
                          

                          AFAIK You need correct user permission or windows will just deny it by default, when you move files in 'Program Files'. If you chose another drive or a not "protected" folder, it should work.

                            @magge The only folder that is protected and synced by One Drive is the Gas Powered Games folder. I moved it into my Downloads folder which is not synced or protected but still shows the same error.Screenshot (137).png

                              Ok, I fixed it by creating a new folder in my Downloads instead of transferring Gas Powered Games to downloads. Thank you for taking the time to help me and have a great rest of your week!
