Expected behavior
Detect the OS and install normally

Screenshots

Environment (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Windows 10 22h2

Additional context
I've tried everything in .ini configuration file, like setting winver=4.0 (Windows 95) but I still can't get installshield to proceed whatsoever, it just gives me that w95/98 error message and nothing else.

It might also work to set iamnotnt=1 in otvdm.ini for other installers that have similar issues. In this case the alternative installer is a better solution.
