SCHOOL Posted December 4, 2024 Posted December 4, 2024 Tried to update DCS on an old rig and cant launch because it is still running 8.1. I know how to update/repair in the command prompt but not sure how to roll back to a specific version AND dont know what version to use..... Thanks, SCHOOL
sleighzy Posted December 5, 2024 Posted December 5, 2024 Is the rig so old that you can’t update it to Windows 10? 1 AMD 7800x3D, 4080Super, 64Gb DDR5 RAM, 4Tb NVMe M.2, Quest 2

SCHOOL Posted December 10, 2024 Author Posted December 10, 2024 Thanks, Installing 2.5.6 version right now. Is there a list that shows the last version available before the jump to Windows 10 or versions before that? I am unable to use several newer aircraft but know there is an "in between version" that will fit this old PC...
