That link did not work for me, but
https://www.unisys.com/offerings/clearpath-forward/clearpath-forward-products/clearpath-os-2200-software/clearpath-os-2200-express
got me to where I wanted to be.
One detail I wanted to clear before registering myself for the download,
what are the hardware requirements? The system I'd be using is 10 years
old, has an AMD Phenom processor running 64-bit Windows 10 with only 4GB
of DDR3 memory.
Disk space is probably not an issue but I'd need to make sure there as well.
I could buy a new system but there is one piece of software on that old
system which is uninstallable under Windows 10, it only works because
the beast is an upgraded Windows 7 Professional machine. I only use
part of that software's functionality and the fact that key functions
are incompatible with the OS is not a problem.

I don't know about ClearPath OS 2200 Express, but the MCP equivalent
last I checked will not work on AMD, but requires Intel.

I don't think any of that will be a problem, although it will probably
run slower than on a more capacious system. Of course the best test is
simply to try it, and since it is free, I would do that.

Please let us know of your progress.

I waited until I'd upgraded memory from 4G to 8G before applying. Then
I got the download link almost immediately, returned the license
application a day or so later and have now been meditating on the
infinite since late last week.

The key arrived a couple of hours ago and I have been testing. The next
hurdle is that I'm going to try and load some Program Files I saved back
in 2018, I saved them as exported FAS tapes (@DCOPY) and via CIFS.
