Don't know about III or V yet, but in a couple of different threads in the SH4 Forum some people have said they have SH4 up and running on 10.

I haven't tried 5, but 3 and 4 both run just fine...for me anyway. At least one other has said he's having problems.

Yes, I had that problem. The UbisoftGameLauncher that installs with the game is not enough. You must go online to your Uplay account and download the UbisoftGameLauncher App and install it all over again. It will give direct access to the log onto UPlay through a dialog box.

Once you have the dialog box you can click the gear box to change settings. Go to Network settings and check the box to 'Always start Uplay in offline mode'. After that is done you can run the game without bothering with Uplay.

Also if anyone is running Windows 10 or 8 you may have to change the SH5.exe properties | Compatibility and check 'Disable display scaling on high DPI settings' ...as well as.... 'Run as administrator'

Hello

I have been a silent reader for a long while now in the SH5 section.
Now I need to register and ask for help.
I am running SH5 steam + WOS and since last windows 10 update few days ago, the game gave up.
The game loads up to start screen, I load a game and it crashes to desktop upon finished loading (where the game should start).
Problem concerns all my saves.
Returning system to previous point before update does not help.
Can it be related to the Micro C+++ updates???

Any ideas?

I can't help here, but im curious as to how to get SH5 steam version running with WoS on Windows 10 myself ... is it as simple as running the installer? im guessing not ... then to see if it works on updated Win10

installation went smooth without any need for my intervention.
I have been playing for few months now, and this happened.
it is a pity.
If I fail to resolve the issue probably I will have to abandon this game...
