Document Folder Fiasco - I HATE ONEDRIVE

[IHateTheReportSystem]

So long story short, I should've switched to linux years ago.

Microsoft's one drive has been my primary holder of a variety of standard and important files and directories that really should've been just on the drive. When I realized, I naturally Unlinked onedrive after porting my documents to my main drive. Now, however, Steam seams to have decided my now nonexistent User>XXXX>OneDrive>Documents is the soucre of game documents. This is not the case and as such I cannot access CK3, much less any paradox game. How do I reroute steam to look for documents from the correct source?

You can add as many storage places you want.
Go to Steam in top bar - > Settings - > Storage. Here you can add drives and it should catch up.

EDIT: Sorry, you are talking about the savegame folder? I don't know if you're able to reroute that, but could try solution below. Needs porting it back in Onedrive though.

But you didn't have to move things from OneDrive to main drive. The OneDrive is only syncing your files down from the cloud anyway. And you can set rules on individual folders to "Always keep on this device". It will not then get moved to cloud only and will be on your main drive - synced.

Ugh, You may be right. It appears it isnt an issue with the paradox launcher or Steam, instead the 'documents' library appears to only route to OneDrive>Documents, even going so far as to recreate OneDrive> Documents should I delete it.

The base launcher routes savegames from %USER_DOCUMENTS%/Paradox Interactive/GAME, notice how OneDrive isn't mentioned. This, I assume, means that Documents has been hijacked by some Onedrive library that remains even after unlinking one drive from my PC. How annoying.
