[Bug] OpenBBUserData folder in $HOME despite the settings

[janemba]

Describe the bug
Hello,

I set data_directory and export_directory in .openbb_platform/user_settings.json but each time I'm starting OpenBB the folder OpenBBUserData is created in my $HOME directory.

To Reproduce

1. In user_settings.json set the following values for data_directory and export_directory:

{
    "credentials": {
        "fmp_api_key": "xxx"
    },
    "preferences": {
        "data_directory": "/home/my_user/.local/share/openbb/OpenBBUserData",
        "export_directory": "/home/my_user/.local/share/openbb/OpenBBUserData/export"
    },
    "defaults": {
        "commands": {}
    }
}

2. Start openBB
3. OpenBBUserData is created in $HOME

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: GNU/Linux Slackware
• Python version 3.11.9
