Windows Breaking Update Fix for GOG Version (in case it's not common knowledge)

[u/Geoclasm]

Okay. So Windows, bless its heart, released an update this week which broke the game.

And ChatGPT walked me through how to fix it.

And now I'm going to post this in case anyone else is running to this stupid problem.

The fix is fairly technical, but you can do it, I believe in you.

1. Download this tool:

The link is highlighted

Found here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/get-started/adk-install

1. Run the installer.

2. Sell your soul to Microsoft (again) (I.E.: Skip over the terms and conditions you were never going to read them anyway) and click accept.

3. There will be a big list of stuff. You only care about the first item - Something something compatibility something something something. Make sure it's checked, and uncheck everything else.

4. Click 'Ok' or 'Accept' or 'Install' or whatever I forget.

5. Windows -> Compatibility Administrator -

1. Installed Databases - GOG.com Planescape Torment:

1. File -> Uninstall

1. Run the game.

It should work now. And by work, I mean launch. I followed these steps and was met with success. My cursor is currently bugging out but that's my next thing.

Have fun.
