Windows 11

Is Ether One Windows 11 compatible? I installed on Windows 11 and it will not run.

Hey Tortoise - I just downloaded to check and it worked OK on Win11.

Did you download the Redux version? Both should work but possibly opt for the Redux if you tried the original.

Also just make sure all your graphics drivers are up to date and you don't have any firewalls blocking it.

Let us know if you need any further support but it sounds like it might be something locally on your PC blocking it from opening.

Hi. Thanks for the reply and the check on Windows 11. I successfully ran the game on my Windows 10 Pro laptop (intel cpu & nVidia g). Where I'm having the problem is on my 2022 Alienware M17 R5 Ryzen 9 6900HX 32GB 1TB SSD 17.3" FHD 360Hz RX 6850M XT. From your experience of it working on Windows 11, I wonder if my problem could be my attempted & aborted after 2% transfer of game files from laptop to laptop? I cancelled & uninstalled then tried installing with no transfer and I'm not sure it downloaded all the files? Is there a way to completely clean out an install & transfer on my laptop to start clean and try again? Thanks in advance for your advice.

Hello Tortoise,

Apologies for the delayed response over the winter break.

I see your thread on 'Empty Cider bottle' - does that mean you've managed to load the game OK or are you still in need of some support here?

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I couldn't get it to run on my Windows 11 laptop, but I did finish the game on my Windows 10 laptop. i love the game. My only disappointment was I couldn't complete all the tasks - the Cider Mill was the one task I couldn't complete and that was because I used both cider bottles - I broke both bottles - before realizing there are only TWO?! cider bottles and I need a cider bottle to complete the Cider Mill task. I got right to the point where I had to fill an empty cider bottle and there was no bottle. MAYBE if you make any changes to the game, you could create more empty cider bottles? OR a hint not to destroy both? OR a way to empty one of the many cider bottles, so there is always one empty bottle. It's very saddening to complete all the steps of the Cider Mill task only to be thwarted by lack of any empty bottle. Anyway, thanks again for the reply and I hope you had a great holiday season.
