Kierankille:

I was able to fix the problem "Unable to save Personal Settings 1". after opening FC 24, but before it gets to the settings screen, renaming my Fifa 23 folder (inside the PC's documents folder if you played Fifa 23 on PC) to "FC 24". 

This then showed me that Personal Settings 1 were corrupted, after which I followed the instructions to delete the folder and it let me make new personal settings.

This works, and you don't even need to have played Fifa 23.

It seems like the game doesn't have write permission to your Documents to create the FC 24 folder, so if you manually create that, it will have access to it and be able to save.

Great find Kieran

tl;dr - 

Create "FC 24" folder in your Documents, start game, save your settings. GO GO GO! :D

• Additionally, you may try checking or unchecking the Read-only attribute for the documents folder in its Properties on your PC and then restart the game.

         

• If you are using a PC, make sure you are playing on an Administrator account.
• For the consoles, kindly log out from any other profiles currently signed in on your console and then reboot.
