Thief Shutting down windows 10 PC

[1stsss2x2]

All my games through steam are shutting down my pc once executed. Any fixes yet? Never had any issues with Windows 7.

[Vik]

Yes. Uninstall Teef.

[Rogue]

It is Windows 10 NEVER upgrade when the bugs are in LOL enjoy :)

I have Windows 10. Playing all games just fine even with better graphics I couldnt pick on lower system due to lower directx version. I dont really know what are you talking here. Now my Thief runs smoothly even on max with mantle amd set on. Before windows 10 it was no chance.

The problem is probably your driver. Right now there seem to be memory leaks (at least with the nvidia ones). You can try checking in task manager for the System process. After playing for a while it can go to 500+ MB usage if this is your problem.

You have better graphics from installing Windows 10? "cough" "Cough"

[Vik]

I bet the gameplay is better on windows 10 as well.

No, Win 10 is generally much less of a resource hog than 7 and adds DX12 support, so I'm not surprised everything runs smoother for people, including myself.

its your drivers...either for you mobo or your graphics driver is corrupted...uninstall video driver, reinstall a clean driver...if you have nvidia...when installing, you have an option of how to install....express or custom...choose custom and select advance options...check the box that says...clean install...then install it....when i went from win7 pro to win 10 pro, i had the same problem....that fixed it.,.....you also could go to windows update make sure everything is updated....bottom line is...all my games on steam work plus the ones i own off steam...win 10 is not the issue here.

For me it was because steam didnt open in administrator mode {simple fix right click steam icon and run as administrator or properties and change it to run as admin in the compatibiliy section so you havnt got to keep doing it}

[Vik]

That or his previous windows install was messed up beyond belief.

Power supply or over heating.

Ignore everyone else. Windows doesn't shut down because of a game, it would crash. A hard shutdown is absolutely a hardware related issue.

? Have played several games on Windows 10 now, some of them being Act of Aggression, MGSV: Phantom Pain, Mad Max, The Witcher 3 and a myriad of others. No issues on the OS side of the house. Plus onto that I've found Windows 10 to be more efficient and stable and hardy then Windows 8.1 which I last had. It's also a less intrusive OS and does most updates and tasks in the background without interrutpion to ones self.

This is not a problem with Windows 10, everytime a new OS comes out, and someone installs it, they blame the new OS for everything, It's annoying and depressing.

Guess you didn't read the FAQ, where it is stated to never run Steam on Administrator mode.

Some misinformed people keep sugestion it, but it shouldn't be done, this comes straight from Valve, if you don't believe me, check the FAQs yourself.

Even though it fixed your problem, it's probably not the source of the problem.
