Windows 10 install
Hello friends,

Now it has happened, my laptop with Windows 7 no longer works properly. I now have Windows 10. How do I get the game running again? I transferred all the data to the new device using a stick and reinstalled Matrix Games, Patch 202 from 2017 ??. What's next ??. I know that the question has certainly been asked many times, but unfortunately I understand very little about it, especially with the technical terms I have problems. Can someone explain this to me in simple words, I have to translate it into German in a meaningful way.

regards Peter / Panzerjaeger

RE: Windows 10 install
I used the same transfer process from another HD.
WitP/AE would not run so I tried installing the latest patch which required the serial number, fixed.
JTCS same problem would not run, tried above fix, no joy but found this link

Read post 6 and 7 for download link, worked like a dream.

Hope this fixes any problem you might encounter.

Peter,

Go here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download...x?id=11895

Click "Download", then choose "vcredist_x64.exe" and install it.

Restart your computer.

Hello,

Thanks for the information. I downloaded the exe. Sadly it still does not work. The game does not start. Is there any info on how I have to do it in sequence? I installed the game using the serial number of the CD and included the exe there. Something is definitely missing.

RE: Windows 10 install
Well, my install process was as follows.

Download and unzip this:

JohnTillerCampaignSeries-SetupRelease-V1DR.exe

Run the executable.

Download and unzip this:

JohnTillerCampaignSeries-UpdateDR-v202.exe

Run the executable.

After that, I launched the game with no issues.

Hi Jason,

I installed the game from the original CD and then downloaded the update directly from the start screen. After installing the CD, the game no longer runs after the update. There was also an error message that the Startexe is not compatible, so I tried the Autorun exe directly, unfortunately without success. I don't understand why the Microsoft Visual is needed, I installed Dave's, but it was of no use. Unfortunately.

You may have to break down and repurchase the game. It should work then. Small price to pay for the countless hours of entertainment.

"The original game CD"

What game does it say on the CD, pretty please. 

Just for clarity.
