Thanks for the extra details. Since you’ve already tried reinstalling, verifying the files, updating drivers, changing V-Sync switching to Borderless, and resetting Personal Settings 1, please also try these steps:
First, fully close FC 26 and the EA app. Then go to %localappdata%\EA SPORTS FC 26 and delete fcsetup, settings, and Umcache. After that, launch the game again and test one full match.
If the issue is still happening, please back up any local saves you need, then clear both Documents\EA Sports FC 26 and %localappdata%\EA SPORTS FC 26, restart the PC, and test again.
Please also check whether the game is changing your graphics settings on its own if you reset settings back to default. In some similar reports, settings such as Strand-Based Hair, Motion Blur, Cloth, Crowd, Grass, and Ambient Occlusion were switching back to heavier values. If you notice that, check this thread to see if you can use that workaround - LINK
Also worth testing:
- disable GPU Power Percent monitoring in MSI Afterburner (only if you use it )
- on Windows 11, turn off Hardware-Accelerated GPU Scheduling
If none of that helps, the next step would be a clean GPU driver install and then a clean boot test.

Why can't you come to terms with the fact that this is your problem, which has been going on for more than six months? None of the above helps, stop powdering the players' eyes.

none of this **bleep** works. just tell the devs to fix the **bleep** game ffs. everyone here has a pc more than capable of running this game, there's nothing wrong with our setups or configurations. it's the optimization of this game. these issues have been going on since lauch and still nothing has been fixed. every other i game i play i don't even bother adjusting anything, i just run it and it runs perfectly fine. fc26 is the only game where we have to resort to galaxy brain stuff just to get a 1% increase in performance. hold your devs accountable!

Ye it is switching automatically on my fc. So I set my rendering on high and the rest on low and it just switches back
