Default Problem with fleet command - windows 10

So i recently bought fleet command and i keep getting this error saying "Failed to initiate graphics display," I'm running windows 10.
Also I'm not "Tech savvy" so i need a really "dumbed down" version.

Thanks

My best advise would be that you do following.

Uninstall everything(Regarding Fleet Command).

Restart your computer.

Go into C
There you create a folder this you can call what you want.

Reinstall Fleet command, it is important that you change the directory the folder which you have created in C

Continue installation.

Go back to C and see if the Fleet command have been installed into your folder and a shortcut have been added to you screen(I forgot what they call it)

Maybe someone else can explain it better.

Yes Windows C:

Another thing.

They have made a second version of Fleet Command.

The first was to Win98 and XP.
The lastest was made to run on Vista and Win 7.

I have both of them and I have the latest version installed on my Win10 computer.
