    It has in fact not been cracked in all single player games it previously protected. The hypervisor bypass method is, crucially, not a crack.

          The hypervisor bypass requires you to give a third-party program the highest level of security access your operating system has. The kind of access you have to reboot your system to grant because it can’t be done while the OS’s security system is currently running. It is extremely inadvisable to do this ever, for any reason, unless you are an educated expert or the system is disposable.
