Als Geek Lab | Easily run 16 bit apps in Windows 10/11 with WineVDM (no VM!) @AlsGeekLab | Uploaded March 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
If you've ever tried to use old Windows 3.x (or even 1.0 and 2.x) apps on Windows 8,10 or 11, you'll find that generally they don't work. Now, you can install a virtual machine with Windows 3.x on it then install the software, but it's never integrated with your real operating system. Imagine if I told you you could install and run Windows 16 and 32 bit applications within Win64 without issue? Well, watch and see as I run up a bunch of Windows 2.x applications, followed by a full demo of me running Setup and installing Word 6 for Windows NT 3.5 and have it print using my real Windows 10 printer subsystem.
