User blog:Amulet of Kings/How to play Skyrim Very Special Edition on Windows 10 without Amazon Echo

This blog is a continuation of How to play The Elder Scrolls Travels games on Windows. I want to help all those TES fans who want to try all TES games, but don't know how run the most obscure or unknown games.

If you follow the steps of this post, you will be able to play Skyrim Very Special Edition on Windows 10 for free (legally) without having to buy an |Amazon Echo. Notice that Alexa is not supported in all countries, so if you live in one of these countries you will have to carry out a pair of additional steps in order to bypass this setback.

Required software

 * Windows 10
 * Alexa app

Step by step guide

 * Press the Start menu icon in the bottom left corner of your screen.
 * Type "Microsoft Store" and open the application.
 * Type Alexa in the search bar, download and intall the application.
 * If you receive a message saying that this product is not available in your region, you need to change your country or region for Microsoft Store. Go to Start > Settings > Time & Language > Region. Under Country or region, select your new region (United States). You can change it back at any time.
 * Once the application is downloaded and intalled, create an Amazon account. Set up your profile and sing in Alexa.
 * If you can't sing in with your Amazon account in the Alexa app, this means that Alexa is not supported in your country. You will have to move to another country (or make Amazon think you live Elsweyr elsewhere). Go to Amazon in your web browser and log in with your account.
 * Go to Manage Addresses and 1-Click Settings in Your Account. Provide a fake adress, preferably in the USA. For example, 11 Wall Street, Lower Manhattan, New York City should work; because you know, brokers also need to get their daily Skyrim dose.
 * Alexa should now welcome you when launching the app. Open Skyrim Very Special Edition in a web browser and enable the skill.
 * Back on the app, tap the button to talk to Alexa and say "Alexa, open Skyrim".
 * Enjoy.

Usually asked questions

 * When changing the region of my PC I accidentally changed the language and keyboard settings.
 * You can change back your language settings in Start > Settings > Time & Language > Languages. I wrote this guide with the layout of an American keyboard in the background, so it's not such a big deal.


 * You made a guide on how to play Skyrim with Amazon Alexa, but what about Samsung smart fridge or a pager?
 * If you really want to play Skyrim in those devices you should really see a doctor.


 * But why play Skyrim Very Special Edition on PC when I can already play Skyrim Special Edition?
 * Because it is the Very Special Edition.


 * But is this game really worth my attention?
 * It is funny to play for the first half an hour or so, but the game quickly becomes repetitive since the quests are very generic. My advice is to try it for yourself.
