I have read some discussion that Player 6.0.7 will run on a 32bit installation of Windows 10. That's a good start :-)
I am currently running Player 6.0.7 on a 32bit Windows 8.1 PC. Player 6.0.7 lets me run some very important legacy apps from my old Win98 as a virtual machine.
What I want to know is this: If I take the plunge and do the Windows upgrade from 8.1 to 10 on my current PC, will I be able to just fire up Player 6.0.7 after the upgrade and it will work just as it did before?
Has anyone done this successfully?
*Some background: The reason I ask if this will work, is that I am concerned that after the OS upgrade, my PC system might be different enough that it will trigger some kind of Windows activation issue for the virtual machine OS.
More background and another question; I managed to get Windows 10 Preview running on an old netbook just to have a look at the OS. I also tried to open the .vmx file of my Win98 vm on the Netbook. It seemed like it was going to work and then it got stuck at the Windows activation. I guess this has something to due with the Netbook not having the same components/configuration/motherboard/etc as the PC on which the .vmx file was created. Q: Is there a way around this sort of issue?
