Sally lost her Windows 7 games for Windows 10 when she upgraded to Windows 10 Creators Update
I recently lost my all my favorite Windows 7 games that I was using on Windows 10 – thanks to you. I downloaded them when I saw a tip in InfoAve Premium. I tried to reinstall it but it will not work after I installed the Creators Update. Is there any chance of getting the games back now that I’m using Creators Update? Thanks so much for all you do. Sally.

Our answer
Hi Sally. Thanks! You will have to reinstall an updated version of the Windows 7 games package for Windows 10. According to the author this updated version of Windows 7 Games for Windows 10 will work on Windows 10 Creators Update (version 1703).

A couple of caveats:

1. We have not installed or tested this version of Windows 7 games for Windows 10 on Windows 10 Creators Edition.

2. There is a very high probability that the next major Windows 10 update, called Fall Creators Update or Autumn Creators Update [depending on where you live] will break the Windows 7 games again. The next major update is scheduled to start rolling out beginning over the next 6 to 8 weeks (September – October 2017).

So, now that you know all of that – if you still want to get the newest incarnation of Windows 7 Games for Windows 10, that the author promises will work on Windows 10 Creators Update, visit this page.
