Cutting a long story short. I've been pretty ill and consequently broke since 2017 so have up to now been playing FM18 on a Windows 7 PC. However I am now healthier and far from broke, but the PC died a death. That means I have a lovely new Windows11 desktop. I would like to be able to get FM18 running on it as that was the last decent season the club I support had (Scunthorpe United, and they lost in the League 1 play off semi final). It's also when my next door neighbour's son had just been released by Bury and was available as a free transfer. However while it was fine on Windows 7, Windows 11 really doesn't seem to want me to find where the game stores all the files. So getting the non-standard face images into the game is proving nigh on impossible. Does anybody have any idea where FM18 would store the graphics files on a Windows 11 PC? It started out doing so on One Drive which was impossible, now I've reinstalled the game with One Drive unlinked and can't find a faces folder anywhere.
