I've installed the game successfuly on an XP virtual machine, applied XP patch and no-cd patch, Copied over the program files to the W10 machine and now I'm able to play the game.

That's critical, I've no clue on how fix this, but it's weird the phrase written on the message box title bar.

Yes it's weird that "Microsoft CART" is mentioned in the title bar, but that's probably a copy/paste error from Microsoft when they made the installer.

So I put my MM2 disc in the drive and try to install MM2 on Windows 10.
I'm getting this error:


I tried XP SP2 compatibility mode with admin rights and all sorts of other combinations, but I keep getting this error when launching the setup
