dummzeuch<p>Just in case you don't have any plans for the next weekends and the Easter holidays and are a sucker for legacy software like me. WinWorld has got software for DOS, 16 bit Windows, OS/2 (They have OS/2 Warp 4.52!) and much much more.</p><p><a href="https://winworldpc.com/home" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">winworldpc.com/home</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>retrocomputing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/oldsoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oldsoftware</span></a></p>
Scott P ✅<p>Just gotta say that running Windows OSes on a Mac in VMs .. rocks!</p><p>I have clients on Windows and Mac. Been using VMware Fusion for years to run multiple OSes at once and switch between them as needed.</p><p>The best part, though, is being able to run old software!

Shredd Tone :bh_s_k: :chk_g_w:<p>(Linux Tip?) Works for me, hopefully for you too:</p><p>If you're struggling to get an app working with an old graphics driver, you can try using an older version, but sometimes it doesn't always work with modern OS's.</p><p>In the terminal, open up the folder that the executable/launcher is in (mine was: cd /opt/[APP FOLDER]) and type the following:<br>LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 ./[APP NAME]</p><p>This forces software rendering on the app, so see if that works.</p><p>If it does work, (if installed) you can edit the text file [APP].desktop (in my case) with nano, gedit <br>etc (i.e nano/opt/[APP FOLDER]/[APP].desktop) <br>and drop in the following line:<br>/opt/[APP FOLDER]/virtualenv LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 [APP].desktop %f</p><p>'virtualenv' worked for me, although you may need to replace it with 'env, venv, pyenv, pyenv, virtualenvwrapper, pipenv' etc</p><p>env = environment variables. Here it's used to run a utility or command in a custom environment.</p><p>Hope this helps</p><p><a href="https://equestria.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> <a href="https://equestria.social/tags/apps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>apps</span></a> <a href="https://equestria.social/tags/oldsoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oldsoftware</span></a> <a href="https://equestria.social/tags/textediting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>textediting</span></a> (...)</p>
