Hope you don't mind me asking, but exactly how does your routine go about this? Each game may have a totally different savegame format. And each savegame file for any particular game may appear completely random, unless you get into it in binary or hex mode. I am genuinely interested here. Not being smart or critical.

I've not been able to find any official documentation that MS has released any of these as abandonware. I find it even less likely, as it is Microsoft, who, to my knowledge, have never released anything for free. Heck, you still can't even install any version of MSDOS legally without a license.

If I'm incorrect, please show me.
