Played it without any issues on windows 11! You just have to delete the content in the "cursor" folder!

Works well on Windows 10, just download and install. It was a bit glitchy (but still playable) for me, so as others have mentioned, I switched the compatibility to Windows 98/ME, no more glitches, runs great!

thanks a lot!! i love the diner dash franchise and wanted to replay it for the longest time. thanks to everyone's comment, that's why community matters ^_^ if you're having trouble with a clunky gameplay or the game crashes, follow JES's advice: it worked for me like a charm as well.

This is exactly what worked for me, thanks:
"If glitchy, as 'N' says in previous comment - right click application file, "Properties', 'Compatibility', 'Windows 98'. But to avoid crashing the game after this change, instead of opening game as usual, right click game icon, 'Run as admin'. Works well for me now. (Thx 'N'!)"

The game is safe to play. If there's an issue with the mouse or if it lags, right-click the .exe file, go to "Properties", then "Compatibility", then change the Compatibility Mode to Windows 98. It should work perfectly fine.

Diner Dash games are not compatible on modern hardware. Expect issues.

The game has some bugs... when the cursor moves it glitches and makes the screen glitch too. After trying to play the first level it crashed within a few seconds.

I played the game and then i noticed the screen in the main menu was glitching and the mouse had a black outline? I turned it off because i was scared my Laptop had a virus and checked my antivirus but it had none. When i checked the setup agreement it says something like do not sue WDoubleYouW and other weird things that do not appear regularly in the setup agreement. Can you replace the file or contact the Donator about this? I think the Donator tampered with the game
