MechCommander 2
Making MechCommander 2 Work on Windows 10
=========================================
First, MechCommander 2 is no longer available from Microsoft as a source code download. It is, however, available on various abandonware sites. The one I found to be reliable is myabandonware.com.

In order to run Setup.exe from the ISO file there, you will need to convert the mdf file to an ISO. Some people have claimed that you can just change the extension, but that didn't work for me on Windows 10 (as of March 2018). Getting a freeware converter is fine and MDF to ISO (mdftoiso.com) works great. Just follow the instructions there.
