Oh man, I had trouble getting this one to start for months. Simply put, you can't play it on Windows 10, at all. You'll need to setup a virtual machine; I recommend VMWARE and Windows '95 OS, there's plenty of how-to guides on setting it up. Once you get that set up, and the virtual machine detects the image on the disc drive, you can install it just as you would on your standard computer. Let me know if you need any additional assistance.

I just tried the ISO of the French version, and strangely - it installed just fine, but wouldn't run (asks to insert CD even though the image is mounted). Maybe it's SafeDisc-protected?

Does it give you a message in French roughly translating into "sound card not configured?" That was the error I received, and I fixed it by downloading what I believe is VMWARE Tools(it was many months ago, but I think this is the right program). Among other things, it fixes the sound as well the color on the virtual machine. If this isn't the issue you're having, or it simply doesn't work, let me know.

Hello, I have great news for you!
You actually can run Rayman Activity Centre on your Windows 10 64-bit!
You probably telling me how?
I must try few things for myself to get it running.
Just mount your ISO file -> Then right click to Setup (do the same to the UbiSetup) -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows 95 -> Tick educed Color Mode: 8bit (256) color -> Tick Disable fullscreen optimitazions -> Tick Run this program as an administrator.
Now install your Rayman game as usual.
Do not click Play yet and keep your ISO CD mounted to your computer, if you want to play the game!
Search for the folder where you install the game -> Right click to the PatchEXE and Rayman and do the same thing as for setup and UbiSetup.
Now you can close Files Manager, keep your ISO CD mounted and double-click on desktop shortcut icon.
Enjoy playing my and your favorite childhood game!
I love all Rayman games and I hope I helped you with your problem.
