Thank you.

Hi JanKurek99,
Normally, you can enable DirectPlay feature from the Legacy Components on Windows 10 to play your old games to it. Regarding your concern, can you tell us if you received any error messages about DirectPlay is missing when trying to play your game? If so, there should be a link on the error message that will allow you to install DirectPlay to your computer. Before doing so, please make sure that you temporarily disable any antivirus on your computer so that it won't be blocked when installing the files.
Keep us updated with the result. We'd be glad to further assist you.

I've disabled antivirus and tried again, it was still the same as it was before, after I run game, I get this(1) window, it appears for about half a second, and then I get second (2) window. When I then click close I get error message (3). I didn't get any direct play download option there, thats all what happens. I'm using Windows XP (service pack 3) compatibility mode. Also Tell me how to solve this problem isn't working.
