On my Intel NUC with lots on space and memory I have had that PC running 16 bit doors for about 4 years now, I've update Windows all the time without a problem. Now I have a new PC, Ryzen 7, also lots of mem and space. I got it update to also run 16 bit doors on my Synchronet BBS system. Works fine.
