[Python] How can I fix FileNotFoundError in Python when writing to a file in a OneDrive...

My OS is Windows, newest version and all updated, I think the issue lies in the path or something to do with OneDrive.

Using the code:

file = "dataset.csv"
with open(file, "w") as f:
f.write(data)


I get the error: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'dataset.csv', but this is an error I have never had before...

I have enabled long paths in the Windows registry and rebooted and it still does not work.

However, I have tried to run this code in different paths of my pc, and it does work if I run it in the path or with a shorter path than: C:\Users\user\OneDrive - UniversityX XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXX\XXXXXXXXX, where X is also part of the folder name as it is my unversity`s name. If I run it after that path it just stops working and outputs that error every time I run the code in VSCode.

Update: This does not only not work in VSCode, but if I use matlab or any other program to save a file, it does not let me save the file either as it says that the file cannot be found.

Does anyone know how I can fix this, please?
