Directory Creation Error
How I can fix that?
Error trying to find the Directory for the Game Config File :
C:\Users\Surik\OneDrive\?????????\Criterion Games\\Need For Speed(TM) Most Wanted\
This means that you will not be able to save your configuration settings, but the game will run with the default

The problem was in the directory for a config file. The right directory for this file must appear like this:


C:\Users\User_Name\OneDrive\ Documents \Criterion Games\Need for Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit Remastered



But I have the same directory except for one thing:


C:\Users\User_Name\OneDrive\ Документы \Criterion Games\Need for Speed(TM) Hot Pursuit Remastered


I started to guess that the problem was in the name, because the error pointed to the wrong directory name (?????????):
"Error trying to find the Directory for the Game Config File:


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


To fix this, I had to open OneDrive in a browser and rename the name of this folder there.
After that it all works, even my old save game works!

So, the solution is:
1. Open One Drive folder
2. Click Right Mouse Button on Documents folder and choose:
OneDrive - View online
3. Rename folder "Документы" (or whatever it is in your case) to " Documents "
4. Refresh folder
5. Start the game

Note that OneDrive must be at least connected, because as it turned out,
these directories work correctly only when it is connected.
