Workaround for DirectX 5 issue on Windows 10

[MadLynx]

It seems that Windows 10 has some kind of auto-compatibility mechanism for running older games and it is based on the game executable file recognition. Therefore just rename the "comandos.exe" in your SteamApp game directory to the "commandos.exe" (one "m" is missing because of spanish speed fix). Then you can run the game from this renamed file, but not from the steam library -- it will say the file is missing. So this is temporary solution to run the Commandos: BEL waiting for a fix from support team.

ADD: see the Ryan2333's post for a helpful hint about running the game through Steam.

This helped a lot. Thank you for posting. I was trying so many things to get Commandos:bel to work and this made it work.

I do not have the game installed in my C Drive
I have it installed in my E drive, an External haddisk
I have Windows 10
How do I do this fix?

I implemented all above explanations. But unfortunately my problem is, my programfiles(x86) is under Local disc G: and when I write "cd" (change directory) to go to the directory where commandos.exe is present, it cannot change to G. from C. Command stays still at C:
Can you please help me?

Type G: and press enter to change the current disk before using cd command.

In case the link above deleted, find and download "cnc-ddraw", unzip to folder where the game source file is located, then run it !
Or google "how to run a game with directX 5 in W10 or W11, instead of Commandos black screen
