If you look in Petz Talk and Help, there is talk of people getting it work with 10.
However, you don't have to get a computer with the newest version. I picked 7 instead of 8 when I got mine, even though 8 was the newest.

Yup. I've actually found my Petz 5 works 10x better on windows 10 vs windows 7 because despite the big resolution, it no longer looks boxy (which meant having to switch to a lower res every time i wanted to play petz).

10 should work as people are saying! Petz works perfectly fine on Windows 7 and 8 for me

Generally windows is okay about running older programs like these, they tend to have options for running them under compatibility mode. I ran it on a Vista for a loooong time, and it sucked, but it did work! I have Win8 now and it works fine.

Petz 4 works swimmingly on Windows 10 for me, though a few notes:
- You need the Petz 4 path or PetzA (well, duh xP). - I run as administrator in order to keep the game from "resetting" every time (i.e. showing the Welcome screens, resetting toy positions, etc.) - I installed in Documents instead of Program Files, I believe this makes it easier to access the game's files. - For some strange reason, I never have to worry about the screen resolution except when I'm going to a Custom Playscene - then I have to decrease it or it won't work properly (it won't crash, but petz won't show up even though you can hear them making sounds and there's this weird stretched-out effect and you can't use the carry case or basically do anything).
