Windows 10 Compatability

[ssn-777]

Team,

Is Harpoon Ultimate Edition compatable with windows 10 home edition? Just purchased a new laptop, want to get back into the game.
I am actually one of the original beta testers from the Three-Sixty days when Harpoon was originally developed.
Thanks in advance![8D]

Hi SSN-777, the Harpoon Classic (HC/Harpoon 1) part of the package is compatible with Windows 10. I haven't run the Harpoon 2/3 part lately but I'm pretty sure it still works too. Microsoft makes the installation more and more difficult by adding layers of "are you sure you want to run this" prompts but if you answer correctly, it'll install and run.

Ready to resume beta testing? We're in need especially for testers and support folks.

I'm trying to install this on a Win 10 laptop and get this error message:

Invalid RegKey: HKEY _LOCAL MACHINE\SoftwareWow6432Node\Matrix Games\Harpoon Ultimate Commanders Edition

I don't know what this means.

Thanks for the report, the Matrix installer and serial number checker like to write to HKLM which requires administrative access. The game itself doesn't need that ability but the serial number check results in many players running the game as admin on their computers.
