FWIW, I’ve had the original AOE installed on my Windows 10 system and working fine since the Windows 10 Beta was released. Run the game as administrator to fix a lot of the lockups. Do not expect AOE to do full screen or high def on new systems or large monitors. I have installed from the original game, the collectors game, the AOE/ROR set and copies of those discs on every Windows OS that has come out (and play AOE a half dozen times a week still).
My current install is the original CD purchased new at the Microsoft Store in 1997.
