Solved

FC 26 error, won't open, and a pop up like this appears:

Wtf is this EA? What happened to my FC 26? Please fix it ASAP 🙏

  • I FINALLY FIXED IT. I found a workaround for the startup crash after EA AntiCheat.

    Full credit for the solution goes to this post:
    EA FC 26 - Problema com Anti Cheat - nĂŁo abre o jogo | EA Forums - 13019493

    IMPORTANT:
    Before doing anything, make a backup of your original folder (for example by renaming it to “EA SPORTS FC 26 - old”), since it contains your careers, profiles, settings, etc.

    The solution is to copy the folder:

    C:\Users<user>\AppData\Local\EA SPORTS FC 26

    from a friend whose game launches correctly.

    If you don’t know anyone who can share the folder, you can use this one:
    https://drive.proton.me/urls/B0X4MBBZB4#BBUyKm4ZyVpZ

    Steps:

    1. Backup your original folder.
    2. Copy the working folder into:
      C:\Users<user>\AppData\Local\
    3. Launch the game.
    4. If EA App asks to repair the game, you can safely do it.
    5. Once the game launches correctly, close it.
    6. Copy back your original folder to recover your careers, profiles, settings, etc.

    In my case this completely fixed the issue after days of trying:

    • Windows reinstalls,
    • multiple PCs,
    • AntiCheat,
    • drivers,
    • BIOS,
    • Amazon Luna, etc.

  • Hi there! Is there a chance you can re-upload the folder again please? Proton link has expired. 

    Thanks so much!

    hey, sorry for the delay. I want to remind you of the steps to follow so you don't lose anything:

    1. Backup your original folder.
    2. Copy the working folder into:
      C:\Users<user>\AppData\Local\
    3. Launch the game.
    4. If EA App asks to repair the game, you can safely do it.
    5. Once the game launches correctly, close it.
    6. Copy back your original folder to recover your careers, profiles, settings, etc.

    Here is the new link with my current data:
