I have games that have worked perfectly in all versions of windows for the past 30 years... Until Windows 11 24H2 update broke everything.
So now I have to use my Windows 98 PC to play those games.

Alpha Centauri is a example.

A crap ton of Ubisoft games were borked under Windows 11 24h2 update, so Microsoft paused the rollout of that update to PC's with that software installed.

Competition for Windows is a good thing. Hopefully SteamOS gains some traction.

Yeah for older games not surprised. Wish there would be better support for legacy games like GOG does.

For older games, I'm using my old gaming desktop in the mean time but I might have to create a set up for Win 10 , gonna grab a iso before they completely get rid of 10.

Even GOG games are affected. Aka. Alpha Centauri.
