How do I install a windows 98 game on Windows 10

So I am trying to install Lucas Arts' Outlaws onto my pc which has windows 10. The game was originally made for Windows 98 I believe. I put in the disc and the install window pops up but whenever I click 'install' a window pops up saying the Outlaws setup program was unable to launch and then it says I can install it from the setup.exe on the Outlaws C-D ROM disk.

Great game and I would love to be able to play again. Any help would be great!

A game that old is not likely to install and/or run properly on Windows 10, but you can try.

As usual, a web search provides lots of instructions: How to Make Old Programs Work on Windows 10.

The best way to run a Win 98 game in Windows 10 is inside a virtual machine. But you have to be a real geek to want to do that.
