But every time I start it (after uninstalling and reinstalling), I get the message that Oscar can't write to the data folder (which is the one on Ondrive), and stops

So it seems I have a parameter somewhere which, even after uninstalling Oscar, keeps memory of where the Oscar Data is, and when reinstalling, does not propose me for the option to create another one
Any idea on how I could overcome this and make a fresh install (program and folders) of Oscar?

Try this: Download https://www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/Patch/C...gistry.reg to your desktop, then double click on CleanRegistry.reg to patch the Windows registry to remove all OSCAR parameters. Specifically, this removes the memory of where the OSCAR_Data directory is.

RE: Oscar data storage
Guy, I fixed a typo in your link above.  It said "ClearRegistry.reg" in the URL and has been correcrted now to "CleanRegistry.reg".

So, Pierrec83 if you had trouble downloading it previously, the download link above in Guy's post above should work now-- you may need to reload the page to see the change.

RE: Oscar data storage
I have my Oscar data folder on a common Dropbox shared folder that Oscar on two different computers uses. No problem.
I must have followed Guy Sharf's instructions on moving the storage folder to that location.
