SkyGo having issues after latest Win11 ARM updates

This was answered in a previous conversation but after recent updates SkyGo is much less usable. The emulation check box fix is less successful.

SkyGo is exhibiting issues again after the recent Windows 11 ARM/Laptop updates. SkyGo is still usable, as in I can watch a programme with limited/not available or delayed controls and hanging up if I go back to the guide which requires a restart. But for me not a great experience.

Most providers are producing Win11 ARM versions of their Apps/Programs and looking at my laptop practically all programs are ARM native.

Hopefully Sky can get around to following on, as it looks as though Windows on ARM will become a lot more popular, my laptop runs cool (fan seldom cuts in) and has very good battery life (in excess of 14 hours).

I have reinstalled windows 11 yesterday so had to reinstall sky go and first thing i notice is the video plays but the volume control is unusable and the buffering icon is on even though i have great internet.

I have installed , restarted and more. I dont have an ARM but this was the newest discussion on my issue.

Same problem here. Bought a brand new laptop with Windows 11 Home because my previous laptop was Windows 8.1, which Sky have stopped supporting. App opens slowly, and if you're lucky, you can watch your first channel pick, though sometimes I get a darkened screen and a spinning circle in middle of screen. No chance of having a second pick. Very frustrating, forced off an older laptop, then don't have an app that works with new technology. Obviously the answer is to buy a second-hand laptop that isn't too old. Cause that's sensible isn't it. Not.
