Windows 10: How about you issue a Steam code to your users for Microsoft games that stopped working...

If you've ever had a big wave of nostalgia hit you in relation to an older game published by Microsoft/Xbox... tried to play it and wondered why after a perfect-seeming installation... no game opens at all, you deserve this from Microsoft.This forum is filled to the brim with purchasers of Microsoft games whose games quit functioning, despite all the fake "fixes" they post, when Windows 10 came out.Examples include Age of Empires, Age of Mythology, and a host of other Microsoft/Xbox published games that most of us purchased legitimately.Suddenly, your own OS does not support your own games any
