Installing SH4 in Windows 10

Hawke21837 · 07-30-16, 10:28 AM

I have installed my game after upgrading to win 10. However, the game would not start. I then removed SH4 and reinstalled it. It still will not run. I again uninstalled and reinstalled on the H drive{ssd} as follows, H/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter 4/. It still would not run.

My computer is a home build w/ Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO Z97 mother board w/ Intel Core i7-4790K Devils Canyon Quad Core 4.0GHz CPU. 4 hard drives with 16GB ram Nvidia 970 GTX 4GB video card.

Try running your SH4.exe and any other applications as administrators.
Plan B > OS 10 run in compatibility mode OS7.

The last upgrades from Microsoft have whacked many programs.
I got rid of Windows 10 and went back to Windows 7 to solve the issues.
Not saying SH3/4 won't run on Win 10 but it's a sign to me.

I have SH3 & SH5 running on Windows 10. I do not have SH4 installed at the moment but, since SH3 runs, it should run as well.
