Hi,

I just downloaded the recent data update, but the installation instructions doesn't specify where to place the downloaded folder when using Steam.

I tried placing it under Steam/SteamApps/Common/Football Manager 2019 but it didn't work when I started a new game.

Any help?

Move the files to your "editor data" folder. By default that folder is located at: Documents > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2019 > editor data

Thanks for replying!

I don't have that folder :/

I have 1 folder called 'data'. Undfolding that shows several - 'database', 'game', 'sicomps', 'sifacegen' and 'simatch'.

I'm guessing it might be somewhere in the 'database' folder. Here I find the subfolder 'db' and from here subfolders called '1900', '1901', '1910' and '1930'. Each of these have subfolders called '1930_fm', 'dbc', 'edt' and 'inc'.

Any idea if it's one of these folders I need to place the downloaded one?

Do take the time to read what was posted

The right location to put downloaded editor data files is: Documents > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2019 > editor data

You are looking in the Steam installation folder; which is completely the wrong place

Ahhh d'oh. I was sure I didn't have the folder because I had it installed via Steam.

Thanks for the help though i'll try again after finding the right folder.
