Empire earth 2 crashes for windows 8.1

I tried to create a batch file I looked up in the Internet and it still doesn't work what is the problem? I typed:
taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
EE2.exe
Start explorer.exe"
When I run it as administrator it opens up my computer When I simply double click it a c:\ windows\system32\cmd.exe poped up and said that there has been an error " invalid argument/ option - /F/IM Type ' taskkill /?' " What seems to be the problem and how can I possibly fix it?
Best Answer
Remove the newline after /IM. Your batch file should look something like this:
taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
EE2.exe
start explorer.exe

Answer 2
Alternatively Empire Earth 2 can be made to work on Windows 7-10 by installing the unofficial patch. This has a number of tweaks but fixes the graphical issue that causes EE2 not to run on Windows 10.
