I had good luck using the 32-bit version of W8 & W10. Had to manually enable NTVDM manually beforehand.
For 64-bit Widows IIRC it would open in DOSbox, but it was actually a DOS aplication.
Now there's this:

- tonyhart7 1y agodo microsoft has legal basis that MS must keep all of this information??? windows 8 has reach end of life and service, they don't have all obligation to keep support channel for this operating system
- fuzzfactor 1y agoAs can be seen, if they can't manage something like this that applies equally to Windows 10, about all you can do is work around it or whine about it. I've recently found information about Windows Vista that enabled more reliable printing in the very latest Windows 11 there is. It always seems like such sad behavior when people make an effort to remove worthwhile material when there is so much useless waste that is not even addressed.
