With the correct update, the machine did not require a restart for the change to take effect. You must check both the box for DirectPlay, and Legacy Components, then hit OK. Once I did, I was able to go to Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows feature on or off > Legacy Components > DirectPlay. I had to manually update the OS to version 1803, the April update. I had version 1709, and the machine claimed to be up to date. To check which version of 10 you have, go to settings > system > about and under Windows Specifications, it should show a version number. There is a conflict with older versions of Windows 10 that won't allow Directplay to be turned on. Once Installed, when I would input my login info in the command prompt, I also got the message about Directplay, which led me to this thread. I'd be very appreciative of any assistance. I assume at least one person using the client has Windows 10/run into the same issue. I updated to the latest version of Windows 10, but that did not work either. Every attempt at enabling DirectPlay appears to result in it instantly becoming disabled again. I've tried disabling anti-virus firewalls (Kaspersky and Windows Defender), as well as entering PowerShell commands (as Admin), but nothing seems to work. Upon restart I notice that DirectPlay is again disabled. My understanding is that DirectPlay is a legacy feature in Windows 10 however, when attempting to enable DirectPlay I receive yet another prompt saying I need to restart to implement the changes. I successfully installed the client, however, upon entering my account info in the command prompt I receive a prompt from windows stating I need DirectPlay to continue. New computer I'm installing the client on, running into issues.
