Ventura 10 on Win 10I've managed to install Ventura 10 to 32 and 64 machines running under Windows 10 operating system.There is absolutely no problem, everything works perfectly.I was extremely surprised by this result.
Thank you for this post. Given the issues with installing VP 10 on windows 7 many years ago, I just assumed it would be impossible on Win 10. It was much simpler. With Microsoft withdrawing support for Win 7 in January, 2020, I was desperately searching for a solution and came upon your post here.
I've successfully installed it on a Win 10 computer. The trick is change Compatibility Mode to Windows XP (Service Pack 3) under Setup32.exe file properties.
It was 4 years ago you made the original post. I wasn't sure you would see my note of appreciation.
I'm going to be able to upgrade my computers to Win 10 and still work in Ventura thanks to your post.
I really miss the Ventura newsgroup. I'm sure that if it was still active someone would have reported V10 works on Win 10 a long time ago. I was helped a lot by very knowledgeable and generous (with their time) Venturians.
Thanks for your valuable reply
Why did Corel stopped to produce Corel Ventura? I see some place that Ventura was a real powerful and very stable publisher? does Coreldraw provides all features from ventura as i see here https://www.coreldraw.com/en/pages/old-brands/corel-ventura/ ?
Just because of curiosity.
No, CD doesn't contain the features of VP that made it a great layout application. The closest application that can do some/much of what VP did is Adobe Framemaker. But, FM is a right pita to use in many respects.
Basically, Corel killed off VP at the time when Unicode-compliance became needed and OpenType fonts became available rather than put in the work required (if it was even possible without the effort to re-write the application).
