Unreal engine games start only with win7 compatibility

[djsolidsnake86]

win 10 here, 3060ti and latest drivers, i also cleaned with diisplay driver uninstaller but i have this problem with ue games, if i dont set the win7 compatibility the process of the game stay in background and the game wont start
what could be my problem?

for example stray and esse proxy, all latest ue games need the compatibility
i tried old ue games like solar ash and metamorphosis and they started without problems
and also all vr games that have ue, they start without set the compatibility

Only suggestion is to upgrade to Win 11, worth if for Auto HDR if you have a compatible monitor and see if this issue goes away? Does not happen on my Win 10 machine but I have a 1080Ti on that.

Doesn't VR still have issues with Win 11? That would be a bad idea to upgrade if he wants stutter free game play and whatever else Win 11 borks.

I have had zero issues with Steam VR in Windows 11.

Windows 11 might have had issues with VR at the beginning of the lifecycle but I haven't had any issues with it.

Then again, I'm on a newer rig with updated bios and drivers. So that might have made a difference.
