I want to install VB6 on windows 10 OS. I need to work on VBP project so I have to install VB6 seamlessly

I have VB6 enterprise version set up but it is not able to complete its installation.(Hang)

I have tried installer from following link: http://nuke.vbcorner.net/Tools/VisualStudio6Installer/tabid/93/language/it-IT/Default.aspx

The condition for above installation you need to have msdn image files ready which I don't have. How can I get VB6 installed on Windows 10?

Is it possible to install VB6 in Windows 10?

The VB6 runtime will ship and will be supported in Windows 10 and Windows 11 for the lifetime of the OS. Visual Basic 6.0 runtime files continue to be 32-bit only, and all components must be hosted in 32-bit application processes.

How do I run a VB6 project on Windows 10?

Run Visual Basic In Compatibility ModeIn Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98, right click on VB6.exe and select Properties. In the Compatibility tab, check the “Run this program in compatibility mode for:” box and click OK.

I followed the instructions here to create VB 6 and VB6 SP6 installers for Windows 10.

Simple and fast to create, and worked without issue.
