What do I need before buying a War Thunder cheat? (Steam, Windows, Secure Boot)

Closed thread Closed by archive

Pre-purchase checklist, since this is the number one reason people get stuck. You need the Steam version of War Thunder, Windows 10 or 11 (builds up to 25H2 are listed), Secure Boot disabled in BIOS, and Core Isolation turned off in Windows Security. Setup steps and a video guide come after purchase.

Press the Windows key, type msinfo32, hit Enter. Look for “Secure Boot State” in the summary. If it says On, it needs to be off. The actual BIOS menu looks different on every motherboard, so use the guide that comes with your purchase for that part.

and core isolation?

Windows Security, Device security, Core isolation details, turn Memory integrity off, then restart. People forget the restart constantly.

One honest note: both of those are security features. Turning them off is a tradeoff and you should be fine with that before buying. Also if you use BitLocker, back up your recovery key before touching BIOS settings, some systems ask for it afterward.
