Hello,

To solve some issues with an old game, I need to enable NTVDM in the Windows features.

I have Windows 10 in a 64-bit version.

I came across a tutorial in English that explains how to do it:
https://www.groovypost.com/howto/enable-16-bit-application-support-windows-10/

The problem is that in the Windows features window, I cannot find NTVDM under DirectPlay (see image)


So I would like to know how to proceed.

Thank you in advance

    Hello,
    With Windows 8.1

    to enable the type feature, you need to open the command prompt and run it as an administrator and type:

    dism /online /enable-feature /all /featurename:NTVDM

    To disable the type feature, use the same process with the command prompt:

    dism /online /disable-feature /featurename:NTVDM

      Hello,

      Thank you.

      So does that mean it's not available on Windows 10?

      Because the tutorial does mention Windows 10.
