Dxvk is a thing

You should be able to run it (once you bypass R* launcher since that probably doesn't work on 7) with DXVK.

I had to upgrade from 7 to 10 'cause the stupid R* launcher prevented me from launching even GTA4 which was a game that I've played first on XP and it was working fine for years and years on 7 until the launcher stopped supporting the OS.
So, even though the game could perhaps run on 7, the launcher would prevent it anyway, unless you sail the seven seas to circumvent the DRM to give it a try.
Also, if you're still on 7, just clone your HDD to an SSD, swap them on your system and update to 10 using those tools that let you keep everything and use inspectre and win aero tweaker to disable the crap that cripples performance and you'll be fine!
I was way less painful than I thought it would be.

I think you're right, I also can't play GTA 5 because of the Rockstar launcher, although before that I played stably at 35-50 fps. It's just that the processor is weak and because of this I don't want to switch to Windows 10, because after switching, a friend had performance drops even when disabling unnecessary utilities.

Just upgrade? Why do you take advice from a single friend? vs. billions of windows 10 users in the world? You are on a 20 year old operating system.. how long do you think that's going to work out for you?

Ok Triple post guy.

Some of us actually read what others say and respond/ask questions without quoting entire posts and ignoring 90% of it.

What you call a "rant" is responding and stating facts.

Would you rather i just quote entire posts and parrot the same posts over and over like most other people derailing windows compatibility threads?!?!?

Also way to ignore how i mentioned DX11 mode and DVXK, even formatted it to make it easy to read but was still too much for you...

Because your steam pic says it all:
one does not simply "upgrade" to windows 10..
also because it actually a downgrade
So millions of people are clueless, play Call of Doody doesn't mean it not complete trash and idiocracy is in full effect.

Prob will work out longer than newer windows...

Also dude Windows 11 is out you on an old operating system you need to "upgrade" because "security" never mind you need an internet account just to get to the desktop and will have your drive encrypted by default locking you out of your PC and data if you didn't know.

Tried quickly with the version downloaded but no luck.
Needs a bit more time/involvement to get it ti launch it seems.

Oh sorry we were silly. You need vkd3d not dxvk
