    BEST FIX (clean reset – works in most cases)

    Step 1: Delete corrupted settings file

    On your PS5:

    • Go to Settings
    • Go to Saved Data and Game/App Settings
    • Select Saved Data (PS5) (or PS4 version if you use it)
    • Go to Console Storage

    Select FC 26

    Delete:

    Settings file / Personal Settings

    (Do NOT delete Career/UT progress unless you want to)

    Step 2: Restart game

    Fully close FC26

    Restart PS5 (important)

    Step 3: Create new profile

    When you open the game:

    Select “Create a new profile”

    This creates a fresh, non-corrupted settings file

     

    If it STILL happens

    Try this:

    Choose “Continue without saving” once

    Go into settings manually in FC26

    Save new profile from inside game

    IMPORTANT (Cloud save issue)

    Sometimes the corrupted file comes back from cloud.

    Fix:

    On your PS Go to Settings → Saved Data

    Check Cloud Storage

    Delete FC26 settings there too

    Or turn off auto-sync temporarily

    LAST RESORT

    Reinstall the game (only if above fails)

    Why this happens

    Game crash during save

    Patch/update conflict

    Cloud overwrite issue

    Bro advice

    Do NOT keep pressing “Retry”

    It will loop forever

    Clean reset = permanent fix in most cases

    Let me know how did you do Bro
