Conkris and I upgraded our PCs with the latest MS Patch Release called the Creators Update.
This is a huge update, not just a patch. You WILL be getting this update, but at the moment it is a slow rollout so reality is unless you request it, you may not get it for a week or more.

Bottom line is now Rainbow Six Siege and Splinter Cell Conviction crash when you start them and do not run.

Ghost Recon Wildlands, Splinter Cell Blacklist, and Farcry 4 are unaffected.

Been playing Siege just fine.

Have you updated your GPU drivers, as the latest one are specifically aimed at the Creator's update. Plus, have you disabled all the DVR and the new Game Mode introduced with the CU?

Installed latest Nvidia driver yesterday. Game Bar, Game DVR and Game Mode all off.

Also there is a Creator Update available. Windows Update said I was up to date, but clicking "check for Updates" resulted in a download and installation....STILL NO JOY

Not to be dense, but you did reboot after the update, right? I had some things running screwy until I realized I had that update pending the reboot.

Yes. Also Bill reinstalled Uplay client and all is well. I did that and it did not work. He had a fresh install of the game, I don't. I'm going to uninstall and reinstall the game tomorrow.

Before uninstalling I did a verify files option in Uplay. Took a while, when finished it said found several corrupt files with a option to repair, which I took, and tah dah....we're back.

That's frustrating. I on the other hand lost my main game drive over the weekend. NOoooooo!
2 TB of games, mods, modded games.
My own fault for not hunting down the noise I knew was a dying drive and most likely a damNED Seagate. At least I get to upgrade a bit.

I'll give that a go for my important, and much smaller, document/photo drive.
I can deal with the games, most of what was on there I hadn't played in years. I can grab most of my stuff off of steam again.
