    How to fix "Unsupported 16-bit Application" error after just upgrading to Windows 11?


    Basically, when I try to launch the Minecraft Launcher, get the error in the title. Anyone know how I fix this? Think I may need to delete the .minecraft folder in appdata, but unsure how this will affect things. Using the latest version of Minecraft Java edition.

    :)

  2. Unsupported 16-Bit Application

    Hi Jen. I'm Greg, an installation specialist, 10 years awarded Windows MVP, and Volunteer Moderator, here to help you.

    A Windows 95 game is 35 years old, or 350 years old in computer years (1=10 years ratio) so that's the level of impossibility you're asking.

    However it is possible to get 16 bit applications running in Windows 10 as shown here:

    There is nothing else I find for that game in Windows 10 so it's likely it's not possible.

    For games similar to Backyard Soccer that run in Windows 10 see here:

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted. If you'll wait to rate whether my post resolved your problem, I will keep working with you until it's resolved.

    Unsupported 16-Bit Application

    Hey there I'm tring to run Nerf Jr. Foam Blaster: Attack of the Kleptons (see https://nerf.fandom.com/wiki/Nerf_Jr._Foam_Blaster:_Attack_of_the_Kleptons!)
    on my laptop and I got this error

    Unsupported 16-Bit Application

    The program or feature "\??\E:\SETUP.EXE" cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available

    I don't know how I can make it compatable?

    Get "Unsupported 16-bit application error" message. but...

    ...only on some computers!

    I know the application is actually a 32-bit application, but it runs just fine in several Windows 10 computers.
    But then there're other Windows 10 machines, where I am getting the 16-bit (???) unsupported app.

    Totally baffled! Puzzled.

    Any ideas???

    Thanks in advance!
