    Do current Windows versions even start anything that was compiled for pre-Vista? I thought they don’t?

      Yes, you can start almost all 32 bit software in Windows 11.

      Yes. It’s 16bit app support for win3.1/95 stuff that ran in the DOS layer that’s depreciated, but even then they’ll sometimes run.

        We still have some ridiculous genetics algorithm running inside dosbox, of all things, in an App-V virtual environment deployed across a farm of hundreds of Citrix servers running inside various VMware hosts and published up to some geneticist freaks at the hospital I look after.

        It’s absolutely insane…
