I don't think the Cake Mania games play on Windows 8 or 10 -- at least not reliably on all computers. Big Fish does not sell the Cake Mania any more. I found Cake Mania: Main Street at Steam, but they don't list any Windows later than Windows 7 as compatible. https://store.steampowered.com/app/36300/Cake_Mania_Main_Street/If you have an older XP computer, try playing on that. Didn't you buy an XP laptop? See if the game works on that.

So you copy/pasted from the post by "Elena" in the "Customer Questions & Answers" section at https://www.amazon.com/Cake-Mania-Main-Street-Download/dp/B002NPCYP4/qid=1594236886You really shouldn't copy/paste someone else's post without saying it's a quote -- unless you are Elena, of course. Did you notice Elena's post was from 2014 -- 6 years ago -- and many many Windows security updates ago? What worked 6 years ago won't necessarily work now. If this version of the game you have is the version from Amazon, you can try to get your money back if the game doesn't work. However it does clearly state the game is for "Windows Vista, XP" in the description.

And Elena says it messes with the "magnification" of your computer? I'm not sure I'd trust anyone who says something like that.

So, you emailed them 6 years ago? I'm not sure what you are asking now. As Jenny has said, this game is not listed for Windows 8 and especially for Windows 8 that has had MANY updates and changes since then. Big Fish doesn't even sell it any more. Maybe it's time to move on to a game that actually works for you and just give this one up as too old for new computers? I have one which I really enjoy, but it doesn't work on my Windows 10. So I moved on to games that DO work.

Probably not. I would just move on to a game that will play and have some fun!
