Greetings to All,
Will Operation Barbarossa: Struggle for Russia run under Win 10?

not confirmed as yet, i don't own it tbh, but as it's one of Ronald Wendt games i'd say yes, as it works in windows 8.1, so there's nothing different from windows 10

Greetings zakblood,
Downloaded the demo but not fully installing under win 10. I will try again and shift settings in compatibility since I always run in administrator mode.
Thanks for your reply and info on win 8.1 works for it.

Greetings to All,
I got the demo, version 1.14, to install and ran with compatibility settings for Win 7 for/ with Win 10. However, I do not get any color for the play map. It is just a dark black. All icons/units/terrain are there and move when ordered as well as attack. All menus work and there are even rain and clouds. Played thru the single player and campaign modes and also tried NATO counters. I think GaW Barbarossa 41 is a more updated version but with only 1941-1943. So I would presume that since the demos work in Win 10 the full games should as well.

as with all older type games, make sure all game pre requisite are installed with the game, even if you think or fully know there are already installed, it will only over write, and it may be that you have a older or newer version of these where as the game in question may need a certain version.

then most stuff works tbh
