Windows cannot find 'Hard'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again





Here is where Hard Hat 2 and start_game.bat are located

C:\Users\megam\Desktop\hardhat2\Hard Hat 2 -War Ensemble-





Here is the

start_game.bat

coding I typed and saved as

start_game.bat



@echo off

color 0a



echo starting executable in Windows XP SP3 combatibility mode



reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "%CD%\Hard Hat 2.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ WINXPSP3" /f



timeout /t 1 /nobreak >nul



start Hard Hat 2.exe







What do I have to fix in

start_game.bat

to be able to get

Hard Hat 2

to appear perfect like in any

Based on this, I'm guessing the spaces in the filename are the issue. You could try changing this line

start Hard Hat 2.exe

to this:

start "Hard Hat 2.exe"

If that doesn't work, maybe rename the game file so that there are no spaces in the name, so something like: Hard_Hat_2.exe
