    No games will work


    none of my games are able to work when I get past the start screen. they just stop working or will load forever until I click then it stops. I have windows up to date and my graphics drivers up to date as well this happened right after i got back from not using it for about a week as I was on a trip. I have a Lenovo IdeaPad gaming 3, so i know it can handle the games i want to play essentially sense it worked perfectly fine a week ago.

    :)

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    I would like to inform that the games which were working in previous Operating System may or may not work in Windows 10 due to compatibility issues. I suggest you to check for the latest version of the games which are not working, check compatibility with

    • Download the setup files for the game and save it on your local disk.
    • Right click on the setup file of the game and select
      “Properties”.
    • Select “Compatibility” Tab.
    • Place a check mark next to“Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.
    • Let the game install and then check thefunctionality.
