Windows 10 or newer is required to run the Windows build.
If you're running an AMD GPU and get frequent freezes (driver timeouts), disable antialiasing in the launcher. AMD is aware of the issue and is working on fixing it.
If you're running an Intel GPU and the game's visuals often appear to freeze, try to check if it still happens with the latest available driver for your GPU and downgrade the driver if it does. This also appears to be a driver-side regression.
Finally, we received many reports on Nvidia Windows driver crashes with unclear reason or connection. This is also suspected to be a vendor-side regression associated with post-50 series drivers, but we do not currently have a recommendation on how to deal with those other than to provide us with more crash dumps and openmw.log files.
