I managed to test it and posted the results just a minute before your reply. Just mentioning so you don’t miss my latest reply - take a look a bit further up as the results are very conclusive.

I'm not sure if I downloaded the file you mentioned from your website or from fmsite or fmscout, it's downloaded.
I can't say for sure that it's not 100% activated, since I'm not very good with computers and I can easily make mistakes, I'm not saying you're lying or anything like that, the proof is clear, The only thing I find strange is that I set everything up exactly as you said, and you have the images, yet everything is showing up the same way it's showing up for you now.
I need a clearer and more concise explanation of the assumption you mentioned, because as far as I know, any folder placed inside the "editor data" folder doesn't work and has no effect on the game itself or on future save files created while it's in that state, Furthermore, those who upload it usually state the same thing, the database won't work if you put it inside a folder within the "editor data" folder, That's why I'm asking for something more concise and clear, because I don't understand it.
By the way, the message I sent a minute after your last one was related to the message you sent at 23:10:35, I'm telling you this in case you hadn't read it and it was causing confusion or something like that.

The daily data update does not modify sponsorships at all.
The only way sponsorships would be modified is if they were modified in the specific nation/league file.

They appear the same in all my games, regardless of the database I use, I need an explanation for why this is happening to me, and it seems to only happen to me.

Where I mentioned that perhaps/maybe the cause of this file being activated was that it was in a sub-folder, that was just a guess from me. It wasn't an assumption; just a possible reason for what you're seeing. As I say, it was a guess/speculation, because I couldn't think of another explanation.
In any case, the reason for the file being activated is not strictly important. What I can see with some level of certainty is that, at your end, the ‘Ultimate Wonderkids FM24 Database’ file is activated because the database of players you see in-game reflects that. I am not aware of any other method to activate a file other than to copy it into the ‘editor data’ folder - but perhaps when FM24 is installed through Epic Games there are some other, strange differences to how files get activated. Again, I'm guessing because I can't think of a different reason and from what you've said before, what you have done looks correct.
No matter the reason, what you need to do is find a way to stop that file from being activated. My suggestion is:
This is the best way I can think of to establish a ‘clean’ folder as a new starting point. If you still see the players from the ‘Ultimate Wonderkids FM24 Database’ when you start the new game at step 2, above, then that means that file is being activated somehow, from some other folder, and there is still an issue to solve.

When you say it ‘only happens to you’ - what is this based on?
I would say the sponsorships situation has a very simple explanation: the sponsorship income you are seeing is the same as you would see if you were using the vanilla database, because the Data Update (ours) doesn't make any changes to these…and probably neither do other databases you've used/are using.
I just started a new game with a vanilla database, as well as one fully-updated with the SortItOutSI FM24 Data Update, and the sponsorship incomes for La Liga teams were the same (almost identical) across both...which I would expect.
Unless a database update actively goes in and changes the sponsorships through the editor, they're not going to change. @Footygamer has confirmed our Data Update doesn't change them, therefore it makes sense they stay the same.

Okay, I just tried it without anything in the system (I moved everything to a new folder on the desktop), And it creates without any special settings, everything's normal, But when I create the game by only putting "your data" in the folder, everything appears the same as I showed before. Honestly, I'm fed up with this and tired of it, I'm glad to know my complaint about this issue has been resolved and it's not your fault, So I'll do what I was going to do from the beginning, which is modify my databases to avoid duplicates and only show the largest number of players across all the databases.
Thanks for your help over the past few days with this, and sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I say this because I've seen many content creators, and when they show the sponsorships of each club, it's clear they don't match the ones I have, and they themselves say in their videos that they haven't changed anything about that, I'm sending you this image as proof, one I was able to find quickly.

Is it possible that since you last downloaded the Data Update from this site you altered the data in the Pre-Game Editor? Specifically, could you have used the Merge Data function to combine the Ultimate Wonderkids file with one of ours?
This was the only other idea I had, just now. Obviously, I’d like to help you solve it which is why I’m persevering with this. Downloading the latest Data Update would eliminate that merge, if that is something you might have done. Just a thought.

For what it’s worth, earlier today I found some time and started to create some of the missing players - so far, I managed to add all of the missing Celta U19s (from TransferMarkt) to our FM24 Data Update.
Miguerp1007
No, I haven't used the merge function, So far, I've only modified one player to test how it works, since the last editor I used was from 2014 and things have changed quite a bit since then, The database I used is the one with the Japanese players from the Captain Tsubasa anime, so I don't think that's affected yours or any other database besides the one I mentioned, or am I wrong?
Miguerp1007
Thank you for that effort, My intention is to have the best and most complete database, which is why I have the idea of creating a game with different databases, since for whatever reason one always adds something that another is missing.
Footygamer
@Miguerp1007 our database is collaborative so if there's something you can add it, which will probably work better than trying to merge another database since while there may be things in that database we've missed there will also be things we've covered that will be duplicated.
The chance of finding another database that has exclusively added things we haven't with no overlap is close to impossible.
