PROBLEM OF THE FORTNIGHT
Can I run Windows 95 software on my Windows 10 laptop?
Right-click the ‘setup. exe’ file on your AutoCAD CD, then choose Properties…
Q I’ve found an old CD-ROM containing AutoCAD LT for Windows 95. Can I install it on my Windows 10 laptop? Should this be done on a virtual machine, which I know little about, or can it be run in legacy mode. Would I also need a copy of Windows 95 to do this?

A Sadly, we don’t have a copy of this 30-year-old program floating around the Computeractive office, so we’ll have to talk in general terms. With that in mind, the answer is you should be able to get it to work – but yes, it will almost certainly involve using a virtual machine.
