No matter what I do, the game when launched tells me that the "user data folder cannot be found" and shuts down. Please reinstall OOTP Baseball 8."

The trouble is that uninstalling and reinstalling leaves me with the same message.

History
I was moving both OOTP 8 and 9 along with all my leagues to a new computer. I set up a custom user data folder fine, following the directions, in OOTP9, but the same procedure led to this error message in OOTP8.

Already tried
Complete uninstall and reinstall
Manually deleting everything except the license
Running Registry Fix
