Does anyone know which of Gog's games (if any) can be played on Windows 10?

I have 10x64pro nvidia gpu amd cpu, and out of my entire library i have yet to find one that wont play/load.

The major things to get are the Direct X files for legacy apps which gog packages.. and some .net and C++ stuff.

I had problems with zero games, so far.

I've only had trifling, if minor issues.

Okay. This really needs to be precised somehow (which games do actually not work on win10), because this is the only thing thst prevents me from upgrading. And my only source on that was this magog list of official supports...

As an example Blood 2 is a PITA to get going... i started the install and image #1 popped up and gave me my dependency. then i got it going no problem with a few quick settings.

runs great.. issues with widescreen... but it always had issues with it.

im not saying its a homerun with all games.. ive not found many that have issues.. though as a note NO disk games with Securom will work. you'll need a nocd to play them.

I'm pretty sure the games here are DRM free and don't have a "rootkit" like Securerom. But you're right, you won't be able to play games with rootkits installed on Windows 10 --it seems like Microsoft wants to make this OS as secure as possible and not allow things other than drivers at such a low level.

Check the store pages of said games. GOG will usual test to see if there's any issue on an OS, and they had done so soon before 10 was public.

Well, it's probably reason Lenovo started installing same sort of crap directly into BIOSes of it's new computers so windows can't even see it to ensure that all the crap/bloatware that come preinstalled with all it's computers stays with the computer.

Do you have an nVidia GPU? I found that the game wouldn't run at all for me before I switched to AMD GPUs, granted that was well before 10, but the game doesn't seem to work well with nVidia gear.

Thus far I've had issues only with games that didn't work under Win8 either, so mainly Betrayal at Krondor.
