OLD Software

How to install software that runs on Windows XP but cannot run anymore on Windows 10 already done tweaking the compatibility of the .exe file and running it as admin.

 

 

Any software to add to make old software run?

 

Except running virtual machine what other solution for this?

    You select to run compatibility mode in Windows XP correct?
    Did software vendor already exists?
    What happens when you attempt to run it?

        You may set the setup program to run as compatibility mode.
        I also advise you to report this issue using the Feedback Hub app.

    Hello gmj12345.
    Did you try the "Run programs made for previous versions of Windows" functionality under Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features?

    Bye.
