This article will explain in detail how to run 16-bit applications in Windows 10 64-bit. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it with you as a reference. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

Install and configure VirtualBox

-- first download Oracle VirtualBox, which can be downloaded for free from the official page. Ensure that the correct version is downloaded for Windows (Virtualbox 5.1.4 for Windows hosts).

-- run the installer after the download is complete.

After successfully installing Oracle Virtual Box, you need to create a new virtual machine for the old application.

Since you want to run 16-bit applications on windows 10 64-bit systems, it is recommended that you use Windows XP to create a new virtual machine.

-- make sure you have downloaded Windows XP ISO to your computer. You can find Windows XP ISO through a simple Google search. After you have prepared the Windows XP ISO, continue to create the new virtual machine.

Start Virtual Box, click Machine and select New.

Here, you need to enter the name of the VM. Enter Windows XP. Most likely, Oracle Box will automatically populate the operating system version to Windows XP 32-bit.

If you do not click the version of the drop-down menu, select "Windows XP (32-bit)."

Next, you need to set the memory size. If you have an 8 GB RAM, I recommend setting the size to 1GB and the 4GB to 512 MB.

Under the "hard disk" section, select the "create virtual hard disk now" option. The partition will store the operating system.

Click the create button.

-- in the create Virtual hard disk window, keep the file location unchanged.

-- go to the hard disk file type and select VDI (VirtualBox disk image).

For Storage on physical hard disk, select the dynamic allocation option.

Click the create button again.

-- OracleBox will now start creating your hard drive. This may take a while, waiting for it to complete.

Next, you need to set the memory size. If you have an 8 GB RAM, I recommend setting the size to 1GB and the 4GB to 512 MB.

Under the "hard disk" section, select the "create virtual hard disk now" option. The partition will store the operating system.

Click the create button.

-- in the create Virtual hard disk window, keep the file location unchanged.
