How do you get CFS3 to run with Windows 10?

CFS3 did run with Windows 8 and 8.1 but will NOT run with Windows 10.

How do you fix this?

    Slowhand818:   Thank you for your reply.  I have all versions of CFS3 except OFF.  ETO will only work with separate installs for each ERA 1-5.  Windows 10 required a different fix to get it to work.  After fixing each CFS3 version I ran cfs3config.  Microsoft's information did not help.

    Jim:  You have to run the "Program Compatability Troubleshooter".  You can select the previous Windows OS, such as Windows XP, Service Pack 2 or 3.  You also can see how other CFS3 gamers have fixed problems by using one or more websites for CFS3 gamers.

    GOOD LUCK!

    MTV040:  In addition to the "Program Compatibility Troubleshooter" there are other minor tweaks you can do.  Unfortunately I can not discuss this here.  I suggest you visit one of the CFS3 websites to research any problem you may have.  I am sorry that I can not be more helpful.
