Battlefield V isn't on Steam, which really simplifies that decision.

Luigi Thirty posted:20 minutes, I have had windows installed for 20 minutes on this spare hard drive entirely so I can play battlefield 5 what we’re looking at here is an error message with a string table fault. the original message was: “Too many computers have accessed this account’s version of XXXX recently. Please try again later.” where XXXX was some specific string that it tried to look up and failed, so it inserted “DisplayName field missing from registry.”

boy howdy i sure do love microsoft's cunning plan to hamstring their entire enterprise product lineup by tying everything to server 2019, but also not doing an RTM release of server 2019 so literally no OEMs support it. you idiots. you loving morons.

fun vpn facts: you cannot create a system wide vpn connection (i.e. for all users), the kind you need to support remote login to an AD network, through any combination of moderns settings app and adapter control panel. the only way to do it is to trigger the legacy "set up a new connection" wizard under the legacy network and sharing center
