Patches for "old" BTR and BoB

[tula1959]

Hey Guys! Read through this whole thread and did not find an answer so thought I would try to pose the question fresh!
I just pulled out the old favorite Battle of Britain by Gary Grigsby (1999 disc v1.00) and tried to install on my Windows10 system. Just keeps telling me "can not launch installer.exe" - have tried every compatibility mode setting from win95, 98 etc and says the same each time. What am I missing here???? I know there is a patch 1.02 but have to get the game installed first in order to patch! It looks to me that people are running this "old" game and I sure would like to! As I said, an old favorite!! Been sitting on the shelf for many years! Many thanks!

Forgot to say that yes, I did try to run as admn on all of the compatibility settings - the result was the same - no install

I seriously doubt it will work without some 3rd party software application. At any rate those Talonsoft versions were never supported by Matrix.
