Windows 10 Version 1909 is Required to Run this Game

[canio]

I have disabled windows 10 automatic updates and spyware, and i have no plans to enable them or update manually in any foreseeable future.
Do you think there is hope for update that gets rid of 1909 requirement or am i better off refunding this game ?

Then better ask for a refund, I don't remember seeing game devs updating their games to be compatible with a previous version of an OS or an older OS.

What exactly could this game possibly want from a specific update of windows 10? It looks like something from 10 years ago and runs like ♥♥♥♥.

Microsoft distrobutes direct x with windows updates now

Ray traceing support was added in 1909 among other things

security updates are a HUGE deal.
Also whatever "bad stuff" the aliens put in were there for whatever version of windows you have running.
but being so old forget about the tin hat stuff. There are nightmarish security threats that you are missing patches for. Real and documented ones that keep me up at night (but that is part of my job to worry about stuff like this.)

also, today is patch day! gogoogogogog

Dont care. Im not going to update windows.

You probably should knowing the amount of exsploits that exist in earlier versions of Windows 10

turning off updates is not a good idea, lol.

You can turn that stuff off so easy these days. for those that care and can read.

Reality is most people crying about windows 10 aren't very smart, but think they are.

If you think there is a big magic button "please don't take my infos for targeted ads and don't sell them to other companies" then sorry but you're extremely naive, or ignorant (or both) so bring you smartass and condescending attitude somewhere else.

Any time I ask them if they use google, MS or amazon services or apple phones they shut up real fast.

Hmmm because they have no other choices? Duuh? People aren't allowed to avoid telemetry when they can?

This thread has the same energy as "Will this game run on Windows Vista" back when it was still a thing.

you need to plan for a different hobby sometime in the future.

Op just don't want to send all info about his everyday life to Microsoft - from typing to apps usage. He isn't naive, just want to decrease qty of bigtech abuse ) But this means stop playing. My advice is to have additional updated OS just for gaming. But games nowadays are collecting almost everything about playing process.

The fact that you dont own the game anymore means this thread is moot. As a secondary piece of advice, pls downgrade to Windows 7. That way you will never have to update your OS even if you want to cos there arent any.
