Note the filepath of the current data folder so you can put it back in the right place on the new machine. You can do the same with tactics and other data as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulfusion Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) Okay like Lukecr1 I have bought a new laptop and am attempting to bring my old save games and other data to it. I have an external hard drive and have saved SI folder to it then pasted into Documents but on opening my game (FM21 btw) my historical game is not available. It should be stated that I do not have much experience with software beyond "Install" and "copy and paste" so a "Dummys guide" would be appreciated. New laptop is Windows 11 and the old one is much earlier (refurb purchase 2017) so probably Windows 10 and file structures (in windows) are different. Any assistance would be appreciated. Problem fixed Edited August 11, 2023 by Soulfusion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
