TOAWIV and TOAIII do not work probably to latest windows 10 update [solved]

Post by fulcrum28 »

I had several years TOAW4 without any problem beside some crashes.
Today when i run the game, it opens but when I click on an arrow key to scroll the map and frozen. I can still move mouse but I cant click on any item or counter or do anything. Any suggestions?

yesterday windows 10 automatically updated, it would be crazy if it is related to this, but it seems it is related because TOAWIII also does not work. If someone knows what is going on related to this update, please let me know.

I also checked I have similar problem with WiTE and WiTW.

More recent games seem to work as usual.


**I solved the problem by rolling back the windows 10 to the previous version before the December 2020 update**

Yikes. Don't know why you are having such nasty problems with Matrix games. Works ok for me. [&:]

If duct tape doesn't fix it then you are not using enough duct tape.
