Windows 10 bloque tous les jeux protégés par SafeDisc ou Securom

Games and audio CDs protected by SafeDisc and Securom will not work on Windows 10 without a proper No CD crack.

“Everything that ran in Windows 7 should also run in Windows 10. There are just two silly exceptions: antivirus software and stuff that’s deeply embedded into the system needs updating – but the developers are on it already – and then there are old games on CD-Rom that have DRM,” explained Microsoft’s Boris Schneider-Johne at this year’s Gamescom. “This DRM stuff is also deeply embedded in your system, and that’s where Windows 10 says “sorry, we cannot allow that, because that would be a possible loophole for computer viruses.” That’s why there are a couple of games from 2003-2008 with Securom, etc. that simply don’t run without a no-CD patch or some such.”

In addition to numerous audio CDs published by Sony, hundreds of games are affected, including BioShock, Mass Effect, Spore, Red Alert 3 and GTA 3.

Rovi Corporation, the creators of SafeDisc, has updated its (German) website with the following statement:

“Safedisc DRM hasn’t been supported for a few years now, and the driver has consequently not been updated for some time. Microsoft should have migrated the existing software since Windows 8. We don’t know if that’s still possible with Windows 10 or if they simply didn’t care about it.”

If only it was possible to find some mega site to download the necessary no-CD fixes! With some Google-Fu and a little bit of luck, we’re sure you can find one.
