Going by what I am seeing with my UPlay SH4 on the Windows 10 laptop, I cannot permanently turn off the "Searching for updates..." from Ubisoft / UPlay, which is very similar to what Steam does each time it starts (perhaps disconnecting the internet while starting??). I also am no longer able to copy my original SH5 install and move it to another folder for a TWoS activation. It will always attempt to update the original install. Maybe the TWoS installer follows the Windows Registry (Hive)?? I can turn the "Online" mode off, but then the next time I start the game, UPlay has re-enabled the "Online" mode and searches for updates and attemtps to "sync" the Saves... Sort of like Windows 10, I can control certain aspects, but the program will put them right back the way it wants things set-up. I am expecting a "change" each time I start the games in Windows 10 now, both my UPlay SH4 and my Steam SH5 & SH3, all three of which I have modded, but everything is fine for now. I have no similar issues on any of the Win7 computers, with disk installs of SH4 and Steam installs of SH3 and SH5, all of which are modded...
