failed to load - settings pc

I logged into FC 26 today, was messing around in the practice arena and then wen to Ultimate team. Some of my players in my team were greyed out(didnt get a screenshot) so i restarted the game now i Cant get in at all. 

 

Just says "failed to load" on setting when initially loading the game 

Is there any fixes to this?

 

  • Hey I found a fix if anyone else runs into this problem, 

    i deleted my settings folder from this location, C:\Users[Username]\AppData\Local\EA SPORTS FC 26 (AppData is usually a hidden folder, so it can be made visible from the View dropdown.)

     

    It forces you to recreate a setting file which is annoying but it got me into the game at least, 

    Hope this helps

    So that means I’m going to lose my Career Mode save file for good, right?

  • If you don’t want your old Career Mode save file to be lost, before deleting, copy the file that starts with “cm” and keep it somewhere safe. After deleting the Settings folder, open the game once so it can create a new Settings folder. Then close the game, and paste the copied file into the newly created Settings folder. When you open the game again and go to Career Mode → Load Save, you’ll see your old save file back.

    And now i found it ,i get into the game and still not working ,i should restart the pc ?

  • I have had a post been replied to by moderators and stuff and I’ve done the check of making a copy of the file to see if it’s the issue. I can’t load my game on pc because it says my save failed to load. What can I do
