What do you mean by "DOS" mode? You're trying to run the application on 30 years old machine?

No it’s brand new and I’m running windows 10 and I read up on it , it says older software will work on it?

You cannot read exe file.

Configure the Virtual DJ to save the information to a text file. Then read that file in the Magic RDS 4. For details, follow the Virtual DJ documentation or community.

The setup of saving "now playing" information into a text file is specific to VDJ. This has nothing to do with RDS. They should know this very well. Otherwise consider using of another broadcast automation.
