Hi Guys
I updated to the latest window 10 on 8th of December as per the notification from Windows, at the time I was playing the 2nd case of Sherlock Holmes, The Devils Daughter, after the update, the game would not run, I checked the Steam Forum and nothing was showing in there regards issues with the update, in the end I reverted back to the previous Windows built via the recovery option, the game still wont run (it was running fine prior to the update), anyone else had the same problems, any help gratefully appriciated

I had a couple of Steam games going when I did the update, but had no problems at all getting back into them.

Hi Guys
I rebooted after the update, this is when the issues started, it mentioned an error regard 32 bit (I run on 62bit) I reverted back to a previous Windows 10 build via the recovery option, I unistalled the game and downloaded it again from Steam, but it stil would not run, I have unistalled it again, rebooted and I am at present downloading the game again. Will let you know the outcome
Cheers SAFC
