    I've been fighting this issue for a while now, and basically all they can come up with is to play it in xbox app on windows 10.  I just helped you skip through about 2 weeks of stuff that does nothing but waste time.  I still cannot even get it to work through that app, so good luck and if you find the answer please share so I can actually play the game I also purchased....

    I know this is an older thread but hopefully the fix has been verified by now.

    A feeling of nostalgia hit me after I got a new laptop with Win10 64bit OS and wanted to pay AOE II 

    I have the original install CD and it seems to install ok but is unable to run the game. 

    No error messages appear and I have tried many of the past suggested fixes and none have worked.

    Any suggestions on how this is possible?
