It will work on any OS that supports 16bit applications.

Natively, that means a 32bit version of Windows.

BUT!

How to run any 16bit app on modern Windows:

Disclaimer: I haven't tried it myself yet. Actually, XP64 decided I am 
not allowed to run it, or even look at it, even tho I'm the 
administrator and took ownership. WTF.

REQUIRES Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 
(32-bit)

(this is an official Microsoft source, despite the goofy domain)

Performance note:
Compared to a 32bit OS, a 64bit OS runs about 4x faster on the same 
hardware. That's per actual CPU benchmark in XP32 vs XP64, also XP32 vs 
x64 Win10.
