Use this solution

!!!the loadFactoriesFrom method should not be used, it's deprecated and it will be removed from Laravel in a future version!!!

What you should do, is overwrite the newFactory() method, that the HasFactory trait provides, and just register the factory there. I would be happier for a more "global" solution but this seems to be a good solution and doing it the way laravel intended it to. Hacking stuff will bite you in the future :)

/**

• Create a new factory instance for the model.
• @return Factory */ protected static function newFactory(): Factory { return FactoryClass::new(); }
