Using latest versions for both FM and FM Genie Scout with Administrator.
Error message: "Football Manager is not found.
Please, make sure you are using Football Manager 26 26.0 and higher.
If you're sure and the problem persists, try to run FM GEnie Scout with administrator rights."
FM26 needs to be open and running with your save loaded before loading the game on Genie Scout.
The latest build 1521 should work with the 26.1.2 version across platforms. What is your platform?

Thanks for your response, but I already followed these instructions:

Extract the downloaded .zip file and run the setup .exe file.

Follow instructions until installation is finished.

Run Football Manager 2026 and load your saved game.

Continue to the next day in-game.

Launch Genie Scout 26 and from main menu click "Load Game".


I'm using Stream on PC. Already went to the next day in-game before Launching Genie Scout 26.
Please help to check my attached images
The issue has been resolved after uninstalling the application, restarting the PC, and reinstalling it.
Thank you for your support.
