Fifa series games are one of the most popular among football simulators today. Competing with them can only series Pro Evolution Soccer: these two series are the most famous among fans of virtual football. Fifa games have been going out for a very long time, each of them had its own problems with the launch or the gameplay itself, but only in Fifa 12, which was released in 2011, a very serious issue with departures. At the Russian-speaking forums, concerning this version of the simulator, there began to appear messages that Fifa 12 does not start. Practically everyone had problems. Therefore, it took some time to understand how to launch Fifa 12. The reason turned out to be quite trivial - the new version of the game simply did not perceive the Russian characters on the way to the folder with the game data. That is, if you installed Fifa 12 in the "Games" folder, and not in the "Games" folder, then you had a startup issue. More serious was the part of the question concerning the non-root folder of the game, and containing the save - it is located on drive C, that is located in the folder "My Documents". The whole hitch is that this folder can not just be taken and renamed, how can I do with the one called "Games." Therefore, the question of how to run Fifa 12 without problems, had to be solved more creatively.
Solution
Of course, this brought a lot of discomfort to the fans of the games, but the real fans would never give up trying to find a solution to how to run Fifa 12. The answer was quite fast - just install the game not through the administrator's profile in Windows, but through any Another, which can even be created specifically for this purpose. The fact is that if the profile does not have administrative rights and is not the main one in the system, then the folder names in it can be changed without any problems. But not everyone wants to create a new profile just for the sake of playing it in Fifa 12. It's much more convenient when all the necessary programs are at hand right away. So gamers had to think about how to run Fifa 12 on the same profile, that is, on the administrator's profile. The solution turned out to be much simpler than it might seem: it was only necessary to create another profile, but not to install a game on it, but simply to transfer the administrator's rights to it. After that, all the necessary functions are available in the main profile, and you can easily change the Russian-language folder names to English-language ones. Then safely return your administrative rights to your main profile, and delete the created profile. That's all you need to know if you're going to play Fifa 12.
Problem with tournaments
Quite often, tournaments for sports simulators are held everywhere, and Fifa 12 in this regard is no exception. Fifa 12 tournaments are not so popular anymore, as the next part of the game was released almost a year ago, but among fans there are fans of individual parts who do not look at the year of release, but enjoy the process of a particular series of games. And in the event of a tournament, it is for Fifa 12 that you need to make sure beforehand that on computers that will participate in the tournament all the necessary folders have English names.
