Anyone having issues playing FarCry the first game after updating to Windows 10?
Mine keeps telling me to logon as Administrator and try again.
I set compatibility mode to Windows XP SP3 but that didn't help either. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'll update the thread if I find a solution.
For any issues regarding Windows 10, please contact our Ubisoft Support for assistance. Thank you!

Every Action should be performed with Admin Rights!
1. Install FarCry1 to C:\ not to C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Farcry... Important!
2. Install the "farcry_amd64upgrade_xx.exe" (xx depends of the language) Update.
3. Install the "farcry_amd64_ecu.exe" Update.
4. Start Farcry (64bit) with Admin Rights. No compatibility mode is needed.
That's all! Everything works fine(Tested with Windows 10 Professional (64bit))
So, I was having the installer sticking on "Removing application components" and throwing Error 1603 and 1607.
The only way I can get this to work on Win10 was as follows:
- Install on an XP machine. I used an XP laptop, but you should be able to do this in a VM too. There is a guide which may help http://www.download3k.com/articles/H...-Hyper-V-00770
- Patch the game to version 1.4 http://www.play-old-pc-games.com/2014/11/25/far-cry/
- Copy the installation directory c:\Program File\Crytek and below to the Win10 machine
- Copy msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll from XP c:\Windows\System32
- Important bit: on Win10 put them in the Crytek\Far Cry\bin32 directory
If you have a problem with a blank screen, try running bin32\FarCryConfigurator.exe and resetting the video settings to "Medium"
Where do I download the update? I've tried at Microsoft and Widows, Bing, Google. All I get is virus filled stuff. Also, this is a new computer. How do i get into admin rights?Originally Posted by SP_937_215 Go to original post
Tachchen,
habe Farcry von original CD installiert. Lief nicht unter Win XP Pro (32), Win 7 Ultimate (64) und Win 10 Pro (64). Habe keinen Patch installiert. Dann einen Farcry nocd crack verwendet, also original exe mit der nocd exe getauscht und siehe da: Es geht. Einfache Lösung. Läuft jetzt bei mir unter Win 10 Pro (64). Installiert direkt auf C:\Crytek\Far Cry und nicht in das Vorgabe Verzeichnis C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Farcry
