SH5 ubisoft connect problem
 
hi I have win 7 running and have been enjoying SH5 Wolves of steel for quite some time until today when I discovered UbiSoft Connect no longer works with win 7. Before realising this I tried reinstalling assuming it was a problem with SH5 not Ubisoft Connect. After making a mess of things I'm now looking at having to do a clean install of both UbiSoft Connect and SH5. Can anybody advise if there is a work around or fix of some type, I really dont want to have to update to win 10.
Thanks in advance for any replies,
Sink em all

Welcome back!
 
Stew U-582!:Kaleun_Salute: I see the infamous :subsim: seven-year-itch and defunct Ubi support have ended your 'silent run' since 2015?!:up:

I actually just had this same issue. In the Ubi Connect folder where the upc exe is should be a backup file called upcold.exe or something. Make that the new upc.exe, and save it in case of future Ubisoft updates.

Hm, that didn't work for me since I reinstalled my uplay connect completely...It seems that I can not run UConnect on my PC at all, win 7 also here. :hmmm: I've tried also with older versions of the program.

It's perfectly logical Windows 7 hasn't had a security package for a long time... so no Uplay... install 10 :timeout: be up to date otherwise it's dead... :ouais:
