Re: Sky Go Not Working On Windows 11
The sky go programme downloads and does the installation but nothing happens when attempt to open it from the menu page. Right clicking and trying the various compatibility options makes no difference at all! Permissions options etc also a waste of time.

Re: Sky Go Not Working On Windows 11
I've got the same problem. Double click the icon to run and nothing happens. No error, nothing. It's worked on my machine before. It's been a while since I used it so I'm not sure when it stopped. I have a Lenovo Yoga laptop.

Re: Sky Go Not Working On Windows 11
In response to my complaint sky said they are aware of the concerns and the technical team are working to improve the problem. No set date for new app etc.
Thats when you know you are dealing with a Monopoly ..
Pretty hopeless customer support imo. Wont waste any more of my time trying to resolve.

Re: Sky Go Not Working On Windows 11
I tried it on my Windows 11 laptop afrer a complete Re Set of Windows and it worked perfectly. Tried again a few hours later and again worked fine. I installed it on my Windows 11 PC. All images loaded correctly and those for Today's Top Pics and the other categories below. However checking one of the Top Pics and loading that, the preceeding advert loaded and played but when it finished the Top Pic was muted sound and black screen. This was the same in loading one of the other categories, advert loaded followed by muted sound and black screen. Same issue on live sports and other links I tried.
Both are on SkyQ,

Re: Sky Go App for Windows 11 not working properly
Uninstall the last Windows 11 security update as of 19/7/26. It's blocking the app from working. This has fixed the issue for me.
Go to - Settings, Windows Update, Update history, Uninstall Updates.
Uninstall Bothe the latest security updates at the bottom.

Re: Sky Go Not Working On Windows 11
Looking at the various blogs about this -the problems with sky go and windows 11 have now been going on for quite a few years!
SKY are in no hurry to fix it but as a Monopoly they are content to take peoples money and not address problems like this!
My complaint was pretty much ignored with a cut and paste job saying tech people aware, sorry etc etc
