How to change MySQL 8.0 data folder. Can I use OneDrive folders?

I'm trying to create a DataBase for a very little program that just I and 2 more friends use, so the database will be little. What I want to do is to share this database with these 2 friends, so I thought about storing the data in a OneDrive shared folder. At the moment, I'm using a txt file as a "database". Which is placed in a shared OneDrive folder, so when my friends execute the program, it can read the data from there and make it sort of real time "online". The thing is that I can't find the my.ini file in my C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\ directory, so I can't change the data folder. Another trouble I have is that I also don't have the Data folder in that directory, instead I've found it in this one: C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE Is it possible to do what I want to do? And how should I proceed? Do you think I should be using MySQL 5.x version? Thanks
