Clipper Program Not working in Windows 7 I have an exe program devoloped in Clipper which works well in xp and vista but does not work in windows7. While running, the following message appears. I’m aware on PC’s running Windows 7 you’ll have them install to “Program Files x86” for 32bit and “Program Files” for 64bit. They’ll both be in the same windows explorer location and will work without issue if you are using the higher architecture 64 bits. Oct 31, 2012 Clipper EXE's in 16, 32, 64 bit. However, if you get Win 7 64 Professional, you can install XP-mode (free download), which is a fully licensed XP pro which runs under Win 7 in a virtual machine. That is the configuration I use on my support machines, because then I can run both 16 and 32 bit programs concurrently.

Just like any other program.. If using Windows Explorer, show that network drive and double click on the program.
If using DOSBOX, externally to it before you start assign a drive letter to the network drive. Using Windows Explorer, just open to the network computer, right mouse button on the drive you want, and map network drive to an unused letter. Then follow the mount info in the article.

Thanks you both for the replies

So Assuming I have a network drive with letter N would be the command for dropbox be

mount c: servernamen$foldernameapp.exe
Thanks
I don't think so.. First MOUNT only includes the path, not the name of the exe.
What you should do is MOUNT the drive in Windows itself, Click the Windows Button ('Start') at the lower left of your screen, then click the 'Computer' icon.
Near the top of the window will be a link for 'Map Network Drive'. Click it. In the 'Drive' drop-down menu, navigate to the LAN drive you want and assign it a drive letter. Then use that drive letter for the MOUNT command in DOSBOX. Read fantastic beasts and where to find them pdf download.

You are aware that not every DOS program can run on Windows 7 (or Vista or 8) as Veegertx says, right?
Are you also aware that DOSBOX is an emulator? That means most programs will run slow and screen paints can be, well, painful is the best I'd describe it. Even trying to use a VM (Virtual Machine) although you can get a true 32 bit OS to run on top of the 64 bit OS, is no guarantee the app will do anything than possibly run. I had a 1984 era war game I used to play, gave up on it.. no real way to play it and enjoy it.

Hi ispalten
Yes I am aware of that, it works fine as a shortcut in Windows 7 32bit, it's the 64bit that I'm having the issue with, hence the need for DosBox. It's not a game I'm trying to run, only a small dos application, sort of a database.
I already have the drive mapped as n
I already have the drive mapped as n
So would this do the trick
mount c n:appfolderapp.exe
Thanks
No, unless app.exe is a folder, just use mount c n:appfolder assuming n: is the network drive that you had mapped in Windows.
If just mounted n:, then you could run the program with n:appfolderapp.exe for instance.

Although, Windows 10 is not very different from previous versions regarding handling desktop applications, sometimes older apps designed for earlier versions (e.g., Windows XP or Windows 7) may not run as expected or they won't even start. However, in most cases, you can try to use the compatibility mode feature built into the operating system to resolve this issue.
In this Windows 10 guide, we'll walk you through the easy steps to let the operating system automatically fix the compatibility issue and how you can set the compatibility mode options manually to get older apps running again on your desktop.
Before diving into this guide, it's important that you take the time to check to see if there is any new update available for the application that might fix the problem and may save you from having to go through all the steps below.

How to use the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter
If you have an application designed for Windows XP or Windows 7 that refuses to run on Windows 10, you should try running the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter utility to let the operating system automatically find the best possible compatibility mode.
- On the Start menu, do a search for Run programs made for previous versions of the operating system, and press Enter.
- Click the Advanced link on the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter.
- Click Run as administrator.
- Click Next.
- The troubleshooter will scan the PC for possible solutions. If your desktop application isn't listed, select the Not Listed option, and click Next.
- Click the Browse button and locate the application. Usually, you will find your desktop applications installed under the C:Programs Files (x86) or C:Program Files folder.
- Make sure to select the file that runs the application and click Open. (Usually, the app file looks like this: YourAppName.exe.)
- Click Next.
- Click the Try recommended settings option to apply the new compatibility settings.
- Click Test the program to see if the application works properly.
- Click Next.
- Click Yes, save these settings for this program option to complete the process.
- Click Close to complete the process.
How to change Compatibility mode options manually
If you want to change the compatibility settings manually, you can use the following instructions.
- Open the Start menu, do a search for the application you wish to troubleshoot, right-click and select Open file location.
- The file location will open highlighting the executable file that runs the app. Right-click the app you want and click Properties.
- Click the Compatibility tab.
- Check the Run this program in compatibility mode option, and select the version of Windows you remember worked for the application.
- In the Settings section, you can also change a number of options that may help to fix the problem, including the ability to run the programs as an administrator, change high DPI and resolution settings. Choose the options that apply your application.
- Click Apply.
- Click OK to complete the process.
Note: Keep in mind that changes you configure on the Compatibility tab only applies to your account. If you want to apply the settings to all users in your computer, you must click the Change settings for all users button, and make the set the options in the 'Compatibility for all users' tab.
Once you apply the new settings try to run the desktop application, if it's still not working, go back to the Compatibility tab, and try configuring a different version of the operating system until you find a setting that works for that particular application.
It's worth pointing out that you shouldn't apply compatibility mode settings to applications bundled with the operating system, hard drive utilities, and on antivirus and firewall software, as they may open up security risks or cause data loss.
