Troubleshooting
The most common problems and their solutions.
Last updated:
A change does not show in the game
- Close the relevant screen in the game and open it again.
- If it still does not show, advance a day in the game.
- For appearance (portrait), the squad limit and past-season data, save the career and reload it.
- In the app, press Refresh to check that the value was really written.
Access denied
- Press “Restart as administrator” in the warning at the top.
- If that does not work, close the game and the app and start both as administrator.
The game was updated
- Restart the app; it tries to adapt to the new version by itself.
- Check the “Profile status” in Settings > About. If it is supported, you can continue.
Profile not supported
- Writing stays disabled for safety; reading may work.
- Get an up-to-date version of the app that supports your game version.
Undo refused (conflict)
- The game changed that value after you did (for example a day advanced). The app leaves it alone so as not to overwrite a wrong value.
- Correct the value again by hand.
Edit buttons are disabled
- Make sure Edit mode at the top right is on.
- Without a license editing is off: see the License activation article.
- If the field is unverified, turn on the advanced switch in Settings.
A player transfer did not happen on the joining day
For a scheduled future transfer, the app must be open and connected that day, with Edit mode and Experimental features on.
SmartScreen warning
The installer is not code-signed yet. Verify the file with the SHA-256 value on the download page.
Reporting a problem
- Go to Settings > Bug report and press “Create bug report”.
- Send the resulting zip file for support. You can also create the same report in an unexpected-error window.
- Logs are under %LOCALAPPDATA%\FmEditor\logs; open them with Settings > About > “Open log folder”.
