Thank you to Lockefinder for the Archive.org link, that version works perfectly on my Windows 10 PC, Geforce GTX 1660 Ti, Ryzen 9 3950X, 128GB RAM, ASUS ROG Hero VIII motherboard. I downloaded the Version 1.15.2.0 (2.0). I just extracted the RAR file and then double clicked on POP3D.exe, and the game runs fine.

It's annoying how it either seems to work on one system, or not. I wish someone would have made it easier by now. And maybe fix those shitty bugs like the ones you can't avoid.
Cannot get it to run. Windows 11. Game runs, get grey screen, then black screen, then back to Windows. Tried XP SP2 compat. Tried a bunch of other options. No go. Sad.

the mess this game is is undeniable. who on hell's earth has come up with the genius idea to make strafe AND jump ONE button ? it a sign of clear intelligent software enigineering. mymymy the way prince or whatever his name is moves is obnoxious as f. there is no way to view what is behind you no. you need to turn this shit mess of triangles whole the f way around to see behind him. and this is soo obstrafuct slow ! it makes you wanna format your drive to make sure no traces are left of this game. the first riddle is so. no wait. who came up with the idea to make an so obvious secret passage in the prince his cell so obvious has to get a noob award. how come to be that not any one of the software devs of this game, have pointed out that the controls, and the way you view your surroundings (behind you for ex.) is such a big mess that this game should never have been released the way they did. sorry. but why is this not adressed during the software development cycle ?? this such things are the case with lots of mostly older games. what were they thinking? how did it came to be that most of those games always have similar problems : jumping is wrong jumping is off jumping is obnoxious controls are bad cannot view behind unless i 180 degree turn problems with jumping from platform 2 platform
these things are a sign that something is off during development.

PoP 3D is the black sheep of the franchise, another game that sadly has the misfortune of having an awkward jump from 2D to 3D. It’s a very loose sequel to PoP 2 that sadly has nothing to do with game's story (it ended on a somewhat of an open-ending/cliff-hanger that was never resolved). I remember seeing PoP 3D in the bargain bin for like a dollar back in the day, I do remember enjoying it despite it being clunky and the later levels are super hard due to the tomb raider-like tank controls and annoying level design. Getting it to run on windows 10 is almost impossible, I tried so many options with no luck. The best ways to get it to work is virtual machine or older pcs. Thankfully I have an older pc and it works great on it. Thankfully “PoP: The Sands of Time” saved this franchise from obscurity and its a much better game.

@LemonChild it's probably because it's an .iso, which means it simulates a cd. in your files, below your windows c:/, you should see its tab. right-click, and eject it. Then it can be deleted

okay so I downloaded the rip version and everything was fine and I finished the game so I wanted to delete the game because it got boring and I went to downloads and clicked delete but it said "The action can't be completed because the folder or file in it is open in another program" so im really confused now can anyone tell me how to delete the folder?

Finalmente ho vinto il primo livello ma poi dopo che sono uscito dal gioco il giorno dopo quando volevo giocare il secondo livello il gioco si chiude da solo, ma dai, che cazzo, sembrava funzionare e poi al secondo livello si chiude, vaffanculo.

Non posso applicare la patch 1.1, mi dice Unable to locate Prince of Persia 3D - Prince of Persia 3D is not properly installed on this system, Prince of Persia 3D patch installation cannot continue., e che ho estratto tutti i file della patch dentro alla cartella del gioco prima di avviare Setup.exe per poter installare la patch, come dire che non trovo la cucina quando ci sono già dentro, o che non trovo il mio telefono quando ce l'ho in mano.

A me funziona e ho Windows 7 Starter, comunque la configurazione di gioco è un po' fastidiosa all'inizio, bisogna abituarsi a ruotare la visuale con un tasto invece del mouse e muovere il principe senza potersi spostare velocemente a sinistra o destra, l'unico modo è usare i Sidestep. Anche salire sui muri senza lasciarsi cadere, bisogna tenere premuto il tasto del salto per rimanere attaccati ai bordi dei muri sennò cade. Poteva essere impostato molto meglio di così.

It works on 64 bit Win 10 if you run this game in XP SP2 compatibility mode...... to fix some textures in later levels, download the fixed "Geometry" files from that "unnofficial prince of persia site" and to fix the non transparent prision door in the very first level in prision you can open the game with help of dgvoodoo2

@ROHAN Did you read the abandonware guide? (https://www.myabandonware.com/howto/) This is an old Windows game that will most likely not work on Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or 10. You will need some kind of vitrual machine, an emulator or a computer that is able to use Windows 98 or XP.

who on hell's earth has come up with the

ONE button ? it a sign of clear intelligent
software enigineering. mymymy
the way prince or whatever his name is
moves is obnoxious as f.
there is no way to view what is behind you
no. you need to turn this shit mess of
triangles whole the f way around to see
behind him. and this is soo obstrafuct slow !
it makes you wanna format your drive to
make sure no traces are left of this game.
the first riddle is so. no wait.
who came up with the idea to make an so
obvious secret passage in the prince his
cell so obvious has to get a noob award.
how come to be that not any one of the
software devs of this game, have pointed
out that the controls, and the way you
view your surroundings (behind you for ex.)
is such a big mess that this game should
never have been released the way they did.
sorry. but why is this not adressed during
the software development cycle ??
this such things are the case with lots of
mostly older games. what were they thinking?
how did it came to be that most of those
games always have similar problems :
jumping is wrong
jumping is off
jumping is obnoxious
controls are bad
cannot view behind unless i 180 degree turn
problems with jumping from platform 2 platform
these things are a sign that something is
