    Making me have problems with the game "Battlefield Vietnam" to be precise.



    Quoted from the pc gaming wiki on BF:Vietnam: "SafeDisc retail DRM does not work on Windows 10 and is disabled by default on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 when the KB3086255 update is installed."


    Talking with a support agent (before us disconnecting due to me forgetting about it), they wanted to check my machine and the update with it? Odd and they wanted to control my computer which I found very weird.


    Due to this update (which has been since vista), you can not launch the game battlefield vietnam or play it due to the DRM not being able to detect if there is a disc or not. Yes there are work arounds like No-CD cracks but I just was hoping microsoft could fix this?


    Edit: This also stops games like Age of empires 2 from running as well

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
