   I got the ntvdmx64 installer to work this afternoon. I had to re enable   
   microsoft defender and tell it that ldntvdm.dll was to be allowed and it worked   
   fine. I had orginally turned it off before I tried to install it and it was   
   being automatically  deleted during install. I even tried to load it on a usb   
   drive and move it over manually only to be deleted on the usb drive. So in my   
   case turning windows defender back on again and telling microsoft defender it   
   was allowed solved the problem. This was the opposite of how I did the install   
   on the older laptop and the newer desktop. Everything works now.
