Hi everyone, I made a mistake when I was downloading a new skin that I didn't back up the regular files of the regular skin. Can somebody send those regular files to me, I would be very grateful

To get the default skin back in Football Manager 2026 (FM26), you need to revert the modified UI files in the game's installation directory. Because FM26 uses a new engine (Unity), skinning works by overwriting core game files rather than using a custom folder in your Documents.

Method 1: Verify Integrity of Game Files (Easiest Method)
If you are using Steam, this is the quickest way to restore the original, default files.

Open Steam and go to your Library.
Right-click on Football Manager 2026.
Select Properties.
Click on Installed Files in the left menu.
Click on Verify integrity of game files.
Steam will detect the modified, custom skin files and replace them with the default versions.
