Uninstall GS26g, open the Registry Editor (type that on Windows start to find it), then go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Genie\FM Genie Scout 26g and delete that folder (right-click > delete). Finally, do a fresh install of GS26g.
Hi Stam,

I had the same issue earlier and your suggested fix worked — thank you. However, I now have a new problem, which I believe is related to an undocumented FM26 update that Steam pushed around 2:30pm today.

I’m experiencing an issue with FM Genie Scout 26g after this latest Football Manager 2026 Steam update.

FM26 is fully updated and my save loads without any issues in-game. But when I open FM Genie Scout 26g (v1.0 26.0.0 beta 3) and try to load the game data, I receive the following message:

“Your game data is not found.
Please, make sure your game is loaded completely in Football Manager, and try again.
If you’re sure and the problem persists, save your game in Football Manager, and try again.”

Steps taken so far:

FM26 running and save fully loaded

Manual save created again (not auto-save)

FM Genie Scout launched with admin rights

Correct FM26 save game path detected

Since FM26 received a new update today (Build ID: 20573853), I suspect the game database / memory structure has changed, and FM Genie Scout 26g may no longer be compatible with the latest build.
Hey, just donated and downloaded the 26g and was also getting the same error as zulustrike.

“Your game data is not found.
Please, make sure your game is loaded completely in Football Manager, and try again.
If you’re sure and the problem persists, save your game in Football Manager, and try again.”

I'm guessing that it's because the game just got updated just right after I bought the 26g. Just wanted to confirm that the problem is not on my side, but it was the new FM update that is the issue..?
Thanks!
Same issue, worked fine yesterday.
I'm afraid there's a new hotfix patch for FM26, so GS26g won't work with it until we update it. And that's unlikely to happen for the next 5-6 hours.
