OK. So, I've been doing a lot of digging and asking questions. Here is the deal - Microsoft has decided that it will block any games with certain forms of DRM. This will not apply to those of you having problems with downloaded games such as those from
Big Fish. If you are having issues with that type of game, you should contact the source where you got the game for assistance.
However, for those of us trying to install and play games from original discs, Microsoft has decided for us that we are no longer allowed to play these games. We are not given an option, nor are we given an error message. It's very upsetting to try to
install and play a game I paid $60 for and not have it work because of a decision made by Microsoft.
I certainly don't expect to be able to play some games forever - there comes a time when technology moves on. But an arbitrary decision to force this down our throats? No one hates and loathes DRM more than I do, but I made a decision to accept it for
certain games. Now Microsoft is telling me, "Tough luck?"
I have to say if I wanted an operating system that told me what I want and need rather than let me decide, I'd go for an Apple computer. I am testing games for a very large gaming website and most of the people there are deciding to stay away from the Windows
10 upgrade for this reason alone. With this Microsoft OS upgrade, it seems PC gamers are being thrown under the bus.
