Silent Hunter 4 & Windows 10

[propbeanie]

Silent Hunter 5, for whatever reason, HAS to go through the UConnect, even if it is a Steam game. Then, Ubisoft, in their infinite wisdom, decide to "search" your computer for games, and offer to "help" the player and put them on their Library start menu... needless to say, while both apps (Steam and UConnect) seem to function correctly with SH3 and SH4 for the most part, SH5 is seemingly trashed.

The game must not be installed in any Program Files folders, even if inside the Library folder inside those app's folders. You also cannot invoke the "Verify" function in either app, else it will set your modded game back to stock, which then of course, trashes the Save folders, which on SH3 and 4 are on the player's hard drive. SH5 now does not have an Offline Mode that allows the player to use just their hard drive, and the Ubisoft save seems to ruin the SH5 save on the player's computer... I have no empirical data, just an observation on my computer the last few days...
