Will Spore run on Windows 10
Yes it runs, you just have some things to consider
Starts the game and exe in compatibility mode
- Right click on the Spore icon and exe
- Properties
- Choose compatibility tab
- Choose a Windows Version
- And set a flag in “Run this program as an administrator”
- Say okay

Thats cool and all but under the 4th step i cant choose windows 10 thats why i need the help
Try running the compatibility in Windows XP/Vista. SPORE was a game before even Windows 7 came through. Spore was never designed to work with Windows 10, though I'm running Windows 10 right now and it's working perfect for me; and this isn't even with compatibility mode.
If this still isn't working, try heading to C:\Users\<YOUR USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\ and then deleting the SPORE folder. This will essentially put everything back to its default settings. NOTE: AppData is hidden by default. You can unhide it by doing a simple google search on how to show the AppData folder for the operating system you're using. Once you've deleted the folder, try opening SPORE.
None of these solutions are working for me either, and it's a fresh install via the Origin app!
- @Sharples65 I tried following this, but there is no SPORE folder here. Help?
