Hi Emps,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Sorry to know that you are unable to play Call of Duty game on Windows 10. I will certainly help you with the issue you are experiencing.

I would like you to answer the question stated below:

A compatibility mode is a software mechanism in which a software either emulates an older version of software in order to allow incompatible software or files to remain compatible with the computer's newer hardware or software. Follow below steps:

1. Right click on the setup file of the game's executable file and select "Properties".

2. Select "Compatibility" Tab.

3. Place a check mark next to "Run this program in Compatibility mode" and select operating system from the drop down list.

4. Let the driver install and then check the functionality.
