    How do I play SecuROM games on windows 10?


    I have a few games on CD that use either safedisc, or securom DRM. I'm well aware that Microsoft has made this feature completely unavailable in modern operating systems, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to play the games I paid for.Some of them are available in places like GOG, or Steam, but I'm not happy at the prospect of paying again for a game I already have. Others are just not available as digital downloads at all.Options that I'm currently aware of are:Repurchase the game as a digital download Do not want this!use a noCD crack/patch to bypass the DRM dangerous, and illegal!use

    :)

    Question about Securom


    Hi!

    The latest version of Windows has made some changes to the way it handles security, and the upshot of this is that deep-level programs like DRM are denied the access they need to function. In many ways this is a much safer way for the OS to work, but it does mean that games using SecuROM or SafeDisc just won’t run. As the DRM technology is no longer used or supported, we don’t expect to see patches that fix this problem any time soon, if at all.

    On the SecuRom Support Side is a List which games supported with Patches etc.

    Question about Securom


    So your solution would be to remove all the securom and use a no cd .exe file to play the game? How do I remove the securom completely without harming the game?
