Bug in Library Management

I am trying to move the library from OneDrive to my C: drive. It will not let me change this. I tried uninstalling the product and reinstalling but there must be a place that it saves my preferences. How do I start from scratch. I have a good backup of the Calibre Library.

There is no bug. Reinstalling does not touch the saved library location at all -- instead, use the Switch/Create Libraries dialog (see screenshots).

How are you trying to move the library?
Please give the exact steps you are doing and what errors you are getting, (or at least be a bit more specific about ' It will not let me change this')

For example are you using the 'Move current library to new location' option within the Switch/create library option?
Have you sync switched off on your Onedrive folder?

To start a new empty library use the 'Create a new library at the new location' option within Switch/create library (tick the Copy structure option)
