It would be interesting to point out to the store that sold the game, so EA contact them and ask them to remove it from sale.ДЄs for being another method to install, except those i've already mentioned.yes, but that is not a legal point a couple of things: LOTR: BFME was removed from sales around 10 years ago, when EA lost the the license to develop and sell games in the LOTR universe to Warner Studios. Even those options can be out of question if you have an AMD Ryzen CPU or an intel 7 from the 6xxx - 8xxx series, as those are not supported in the Windows XP - Windows 8.1.

The only way of bypassing this nice MS idea is to either use Virtual Machine and set up a Windows Vista/Win 7 and install the game there (lots of headaches, i know) or create a dual-boot OS (Windows 10/Windows Vista or Windows 10/Windows 7). So you won't be able to install the game from the disc (thank you, Microsoft, for saving us from all our legally retail purchased games). Microsoft blocked the installation of the old copy protections (SecuROM, Safedisc, TAGES and StarForce) on Windows 10.

Which needs to be installed from the disc. Trouble is.the BFME series have as a disc protection SecuROM.

I did see reading another forum that a member was given an unmaterialistic version of the game that worked in windows 10. Have uninstalled and reinstalled both multiple times with no luck. Also tried to install Rise of the witchking however it stops approximately half way through the installation unable to install one of the 'chapters'.

Tried an aftermarket mod to fix the startup issues.The moddb start up fixer. (And yes I ensured it was saved as ini and not as a text document) Have created an 'options.ini' folder with values under the app roaming as that is a common fix. Tried launching via both the desktop icon and the folder. The game installs no worries however when I go to start it via the desktop it comes up saying there is no disc installed. I have gone to install it on my laptop which is almost brand new running windows 10. I have purchased the disc version of the lord of the rings the battle for middle earth 2 collectors edition (lotrbfme2).
