This has been performed using the GOG release of the game, works for the Steam version as well, however:
There are 2 errors you will run into on Windows 11 24H2, especially when you run the game on “HD, 2K or higher resolutions”:
-MFC RESIZE ERROR
-“SWAT MFC Appliaction has to close”
The first is happening due to the mission briefing FMVs being in Indeo movie codec which is old and obsolete and no longer updated. Hence installing an old codec presents a security risk.
There is however a mod that can be downloaded, tocompletely replace them all with re-encoded versions that use the popular XVID codec.
Download the replacement movies from The Mod Database:

The 2nd error happens once characters and weapons have been selected and you want to start the scenario!
ou need to skrink the screen.
It should look like this:

After the scenario is successfully running you can put the window on fullscreen again and reposition and resize the elements within the window to your liking!
Credits for both fixes go to users Max Payne and Slippery_Jim_ in the Steam forum thread MFC Application ERROR
