Ouch :-( Yes fresh install not had it on for a couple of years.

looks like I have come back to SH5 too late. Ubisoft Connect won't run and gives an error along the lines of

Can't find procedure entry point in dxgi.dll.

I'm still running win 7 if that has anything to do with it?

Yes indeed, that’s exactly why. Recent updates by Ubisoft to Connect have made it unable to launch on Windows 7. Please try this workaround, it worked for me:

And this is when I resort to measures that may be frowned upon by some but when you bought the game years ago and a crooked company does something like this, you find ways around it and it doesn't apply to just this title. Always have backups and measures in place in case of issues like this.
