    Running a Win 3.1 / Win 95 program on Windows 10 64-bit


    I am trying to extract my now deceased mother's recipes created in Mastercook 4.07 a Sierra Home 1997-98 program that was part of Generation Family Tree and attempting to install the program but find incompatibility with every attempt despite using the incompatibility settings. I have also tried to find programs that might covert the files with no success. I wonder if it makes sense to try to create a Win 95 emulation virtual machine, but not sure it is worth the hassle/risk but not sure if that is feasible or would work. Any suggestions?


    Thanks,


    Gary

    Win 10 64 bit wont run 32 bit programs after running the comparability it says it's okay but still does not work

    Win 10 64 bit wont run 32 bit programs after running the comparability it says it's okay but still does not work. Went from XP to win 7 64 bit clean install after that the program Print Artist 4.0 Ulead IPhoto Express quit working.

    On a second PC I went from XP to win 7 32 bit and the software print artist runs fine. I Then upgraded that machine to win 10 32 bit and the Print Artist Program continues to runs fine.

    How do I fix this issue with win 10 64 bit machine to run that software the error message is cannot execute D:\\IPEeng\setup.exe wont run..

    Win 10 Pro 64 bit will not load 64 bit programs

    I have been running a home built machine with an Intel i5-3720 64-bit processor and Win 10 Pro 64-bit, and WordPerfect X7 and Word 2007 in 64-bit mode. Suddenly, Task Master shows both of those programs running in 32-bit mode. I have checked the processor
    and memory, and re-installed WordPerfect two times. A check of Windows shows I have a 64-bit operating system running on an x64-based processor. Any help would be appreciated.
