As the title states, I never thought I'd be playing Petz again. I thought I'd changed interests, grown up and got bored of it, but every now and then I'd play Petz5 on my 13yo laptop, when I thought they wouldn't work on my more modern laptops over the past few years, but out of curiosity the other week, I decided to stick in the CDs and they worked! I'm not so savvy with technology so I wasn't sure my discs wouldn't be eaten alive in my disc drive and spat out. Luckily, they weren't and I can now play with my little Petterz on my current laptop, which I'm very happy about (so is my 13yo laptop, which is very heavy, clunky, fragile, grumpy old girl, who absolutely hates me doing anything with her now). Last time I was on here was about 2016, but I joined a few years before. I completely forgot my password and forgot whether I had access to the email address I used for it, so I asked if that account could be removed (and kindly was!) so I could continue with this new one. I doubt anyone would remember me, I wasn't that active, but I'd like to be this time round. My username now is a reference to the name I gave my first rough attempt at creating a 'fursona'. I thought it kinda fit the animal theme of this forum.

Welcome! :)
If it helps we are still able to run petz even on current systems! With just a few tricks/troubleshooting like setting it to always run as administrator and making sure your game is installed outside of Program Files (like in Documents or on an external drive)

That's exactly what I had to do, install it in Documents. I was reminded of years ago when people had trouble with the switch to Windows 7, I think, when games weren't working at they should have, and I worried neither copy of mine would work on my laptop with Windows 10. It was a relief when both instantly worked without any trouble.
