The comparison is with laptop cpus

90% of the most played PC games. Doesn't say how they determined that, that I saw. So no, not 90% of all games.

90% of all games from the 8 bit era until today....isn't the brag they think it is

What games does it not run and why?

Honestly, probably the same reason SteamOS compatibility is in the 90% range. Anticheat is balls.

DRM in general is built to grab Windows by the balls. It can tell when something is trying to fake core Windows processes. It's literally what it's designed to do. Checking for sandboxes and such.
