image After uninstalling and reinstalling a newer version of NTVDMx64 it no-longer works for me.

OS: Windows 10 22H2 Before: OCT 2023 After MAR 2024

Maybe a problem with file association? I guess?

Tested on Windows 10 x64 22H2 Build 19045.4291, works for me. Please check DbgView output if there are problems with the loader.

I'll do that when I got home today.

By the way can ntvdmx64 be installed together with otvdm? Cus otvdm has a lot better compatibility with windows 3.x apps. Such as Office 4.3, Simcity 2000 for windows 3.1, and a lot more. However it doesn't support dos, so I used yours for dos support. Maybe this information would be helpful?

To be short: Yes, it gives OTVDM precedence over its own WOW16, when OTVDM is installed.

I'll try again later to install OTVDM first and then install NTVDM x64. Hope that would probably work. And also I'll look into the logs like you mentioned if that didn't work.

I'm at school right now and don't have access to my pc to test this. I'll do that this evening.
