Future modules requires the DCS 2.7. The DCS 2.7 supports Windows 10 only. Windows 7 is unsupported. It doesn't mean you can't keep playing on it, but you are alone with all support. i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

ojanim Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Was there ever a new module or map working in a stable release from the start on? At some point I left the stable releases behind and played only beta. W10 support should official end 2025, but I think that they will extend the support anyway. So there should be plenty of time without worrying. wishlist: HH-60G Pave Hawk, MH-60R Sea Hawk, UH-60L Black Hawk, NH90, Super (Sea) Lynx / Mk.88, ME: A placeable animated LSE/marshaller for individual created FARPs looking forward to: A-6E Intruder, A-7E Corsair II, BO-105 PAH1A1, C-130J, CH-47F Chinook, Eurofighter Typhoon, F-4E Phantom II, F4U-1D Corsair, OH-58D Kiowa, Tornado Apache beware of the Sikorsky Armed Black Hawk!

I have to ask the big question though... why haven't you upgraded to Windows 10? It was available as a free upgrade a few years ago, and just about everyone I know went forward with that upgrade. Having said that, since that free-upgrade period has long since ended, you could still get it fairly cheap. Look up 'Windows 10 key reseller', and you can get legal keys for significantly less than a retail key. How this works is that a lot of these gaming rig companies have thousands of keys they can't use (by contract), so they just sell'em off to people who turn around and sell them for 10-15 bucks. It's all legal, and dirt cheap if you want to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crash test pilot Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 If ypo have a legal win7 key you can still upgrade to win10 for free. Microsoft never made that public but they have not deactivated the free upgrade possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You already have Win 11 ? https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-11 According to this, it´s not even known if there will be a "Windows 11" and it is to be expected that Microsoft will anounce something this week.

drPhibes Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 There is a leaked development version circulating online, but this is probably not the place to be discussing such things, as per rule 1.8... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon1-1 Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I don't think that it's going to be anything more than a Windows 10 update. Then again, Windows 10 was nothing more than a glorified Windows 8.1 update, so that'd be par the course. I'm fully expecting them to try to make the UI even more hideous, advanced customization even more obtuse and to try to break the tricks I used to beat their product into something practical. Myself, I'd be happy if they just removed "Top Apps" thing from search. This useless crock had exposed peoples' sensitive data in the past.

kengou Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 A) there's no point in discussing Windows 11 compatibility when it's not out yet and the only thing available is a leaked developer version. No one should expect compatibility with a leaked experimental OS. B) It looks like a visual upgrade to the core of Windows 10. I don't expect we'll see any issues with it, once released and drives are out for it.
