Go to Cortana and enter the words Command Prompt. Now, if I had to do it over again, it would probably take me less than an hour rather than the nine hours I spent on Friday.ġ. I just think of it as DOS.Īnyway, just in case anyone wants a simple guide to getting WordPerfect 5.1 to work on a new Windows 10 machine, I include this step-by-step guide. I am such a novice that I didn't even know what a command prompt is, even though I've been using one for decades. I printed out more than 100 pages from Edward Mendelson's site and spent many hours reading and re-reading them. Well, that's way more than my old computer had, and the demands I make are pretty modest, so I don't worry about it. The guy who built my computer said obtaining the 32-bit version wasn't a problem at all he had to order it, which caused a one-day delay, but he said the main limitation is that 32-bit Windows 10 has only 4 gigabytes of RAM. Thanks to this and Edward Mendelson's site, I knew to ask for the 32-bit version of Windows 10.
My 14-year-old Windows XP computer died recently, and I had to upgrade to Windows 10.
