[citation-needed]. Heck, I've gone as far as running Windows, a Linux VM inside, and running the old program in Wine: more likely to run that way than in Win10. I'm aware of all the impressive Windows compat work that went into keeping the Win32 ecosystem ticking, but recently (last ~2 years) this seems to have gone downhill.

In the long run, it always comes down to emulation, regardless of system (e.g. Win16 is no longer a part of current Windows). Perhaps ReactOS has some promise w/r/t old Windows executables...
