    It's impressive that Emergency 2012 doesn't even run in windowed mode using this method. I still give this video a like; in the end it's the game that refuses every attempt to be run in windowed mode.

      Yeah same. I'm playing Life or Death Emergency Room and I've tried everything in DxWnd and this game for whatever reason will not do a window mode. I read a few tips on another website forum, which a guy said he used DirectX 7 hooking for what he was trying to get window mode, so I even did that, still no luck.

    Thank you for making a straightforward tutorial that just simply works. I have the worst luck with issues in life and then I'll go to watch a video and within the first 2-5 seconds I'm stumped because something in the video absolutely doesn't correlate with my reality. Like for example I almost got stumped here because my DXWnd looks very different for no explainable reasonable reason. It just does. Luckily enough of it matched up with yours to follow your instructions but that's typically violently rare.

    I've been trying to figure out how to get the games Journeyman Project 3 and Populous The Beginning to load with this in window mode, but they seem to be a bit complicated, your suggestion of running it in Admin did the trick though. ^_^

    I had a problem with the fact that it still did not open in a window, but apparently it was a problem either in running without an administrator, or due to the fact that in the "paths" I did not clone the line from the "path" into the "launcher"
    Now it works

    I found some games don't seem to allow you to move the cursor outside of the game when launched. Like Prototype, but it works for the most part. Even solved the blackscreen issue I was having on load in windows 10.

    The biggest issue I have with dxw is that when I boot up the game (Spider-Man 2000) the cursor is unable to leave the window. And alt tabbing just breaks the window where I can't actually go back into it to Play the game. And way I can fix this

    Great video and helped fix an issue I had no idea how to fix in the past. The game is Premier Manager 97. But the only issue is that it won't open in a smaller window. It always forces it to open full screen. But I have no idea how to fix it. I've tried fiddling with other settings but it's like the game just overrides them.
