I am currently using a legitimate copy of Windows 11, on the latest version. Just started getting this message after the latest update.
Considering I already have Linux and Mac as alternatives, if they actually pull my license they will just lose a lifelong customer. Their business decisions truly boggle the mind…
@mesamunefire I started playing a game called Flyff back in 2004, though I’ve had to switch servers several times because admins have become incompetent or discontinued, I’ve played ever since, currently playing Insanity Flyff, level 311 character Nanook there. I’ve tried to get it to run under wine but it uses a root kit anti-cheat so won’t work under wine. This is soon going to be an issue with Win11 as well as they plan on disallowing root-kit anticheats soon. So maybe the game will adapt and then play under wine.
Microsoft has discussed the possibility of creating user mode APIs for the monitoring that security programs like CrowdStrike could utilize instead of installing a kernel mode driver, but they haven’t said anything about locking down kernel mode drivers and I personally doubt they ever would.
@YaBoyMax I’ve heard differently from a Microsoft insider, but since I don’t know if it was told to me in confidence or not, I am not going to name names.
