Launcher Type Twitch Desktop App

Modpack many

Modpack version many

Have you modified the pack? No

Link to log file I dont know how to access log without running

Details of the issue This comes up any time I try to run a modpack from 1.12. I haven't been able to run any I've tried when I try to run the "latest release 1.12 download" profile.
Unable to create directory.
Error details: Cannot create a file when that file already exists
Filename on disk: Install
Path: C:/Users\macie\OneDrive\Documents\Curse\Minecraft\Install
Exists: true

if I try to run the actual modded profile it says "The version you are trying to play inherits properties from an unknown version."

I've yet to try a non-1.12 pack though.
thanks for help!

Update: I get the error on other packs as well. In fact, I get the
"Unable to create directory.
Error details: Cannot create a file when that file already exists
Filename on disk: *insert file name*
Path: C:/Users\macie\OneDrive\Documents\Curse\Minecraft\*insert file name*
Exists: true"
on the modded profile too when I play "FTB presents SkyFactory 3"

Update 2: I seem to have fixed it by changing the path to the twitch folder in %appdata%, so hopefully that helps other people who have this issue.
