Windows 10 should run SH5 ok without having to use a compatibility option.

I purchased it on uPlay so it should be automatically updated and I have the ran updater but it's already at v1.2.0.

edit: I'm going to re-install it.
-- reininstall did nothing

What's going on in historical missions?
You don't have GUI at all?

You have a graphic issue which can be caused by a number of things.
Check that you have Direct X 9C working with a new download.
DirectX 9.0C > Download

Check that your gpu settings are correctly setup for SH5
Post #239 Changing The Nvidia GPU Settings

Check that your monitor resolution and the game graphics options are set correctly.

Run Both SH5.exe And Ubisoft Game Launcher Application's As Administrator's


Changing your SH5.exe by going to the compatibility tab and ticking the box to override high DPI scaling behavior is another option.

I can't run as admin as the game crashes if I tick ANY compatibility option. DirectX 9.0 is installed from the game's directory and also beforehand (I've played alot of games with DX9 as a prerequisite). The game is set to 1920x1080 in both display and game graphics. I'll try runnign it in High DPI.

The exact same as above. I am running the TwoS convoy mission.

Basically, here are the bugs I am getting.
1) Text is missing from crew dialogue's.
2) Viewing missions in the map result in names like MissionName.MissionDate.MissionTime.MissionDescrip tion etc.
3) The map settings button in the top left is ALL in black. I don't know if this is a feature in Real Navigation

I think that in your case, you have to find the way to run your game with administration rights.
Where is your game installed? Did you try to change install location somewhere outside of system folders?

I have windows installed on C and I installed the game to the D drive. More specifically D:\Silent Hunter V.
Running it as admin results in a 0xc000005 CTD which is a access violation error but I can run anything else as admin in my D: drive so I am not sure.

That shouldn't be happening definitely.
However, I did notice that your problem is quite common between less involved captains who are not familiar with windows OS and it's tricks. The cause is still beyond me since no one cared to share the solution so far...

I'm a game developer who also manages the server farm so it's my job to know windows and its tricks lol. I'll poke around and see what I can find. I have a few computers I can test this out on
