Any tips on how to deal with the Application Error error in Football Manager 26?


When I use Plitch to edit any player, this error occurs and I’m forced to reopen the game and try again repeatedly until it works


I’ve already tested "--purge_settings" as a launch option on Steam and Xbox PC Game Pass, but it doesn’t fix the issue and the problem keeps happening

Hey marquezine,

thank you for reporting the issue. Which exact cheat did you use that cause the game to crash?

Additionally, please ensure to launch both PLITCH and Steam as administrator. To do this, rightclick on their desktop icons and select "Run as administrator". Then launch the game via the "PLAY" button in PLITCH and activate the Prepare after fully loading in your savegame.
