"Your Windows version is not supported" 3/17/26

Hello

Ever since I had the latest updates from Microsoft, every time I want to play Battle Field 6, I get the following error message, "Windows version is not supported, Please upgrade the minimum supported version".  The only way I can get it to work is by going to the properties section, then to installed files, and then verify this games files are installed correctly.  Once I do that and it has gone through the process, the game will work.  But I have to do this every time I want to play.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Robert

Hello friend!

If the game works after verifying files, Penguin suspect something in the installation may be getting corrupted or blocked after launch.

Things to check: 

1: Ensure Compatibility Mode is Disabled for BF6.exe (Right click BF6.exe, proterties, Compatibility, make sure NO older Windows version is slected.

2: Repair EA AntiCheat.  Open Battlefield 6 folder, EAAnticheat, Run the EaAntiCheat.Installer.exe and use the Repair function it provides.

3: Check Windows System Image files files by running these CMD commands individually as Administrator in CMD:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
sfc /Scannow

If the issue continues, feel free to share a screenshot of Event VIewer errors around the time the game fails to launch
That way the issue can be further investigated by Penguin and Others

Hello Penquin

Pretty sure repairing the exe files did the trick.  Thanks very much for your promptness and suggestions.  It was greatly appreciated.

I have been playing since the game BF6 came out.  I played a game today, shutdown my computer and came back an hour later to find this message when I tried to start the game.

What's up?

Repairing the game fixed it.  

Repiaring the game works, but I have to repair the game evverytime I restart my computer.  Penguin may need a snack to fix this one...

Hello friend!

Thanks for sharing that you experience a similar issue friend, what you describe sounds pretty odd indeed, Penguin suggest you post a screenshot of the Windows Event viewer error log over here, in case any related issues or causes can be identified by Penguin or Others.

Any information can be useful.

Windows + X button 👉 Event Viewer

A solution cannot be guaranteed from this end but it could be helpful in order to try detect what's actually going on, since similar problems seems to affect more players in the community.

How do you repair the game? Im new to pc please help

I guess I was a little premature, that didn't fix the problem.  Once I finished playing and shut down the game, about two hours later tried to restart and back to the same original issue.  I tried downloading the event files, but it wouldn't let me.
