This game is a very old and it was launched with compatibility for the operating systems released in that time. Even if you manage to obtain it, it won't run on a 64bit version of Windows 8.1.
I managed to download a version and attempted a possible installation on Windows 10, but it doesn't work, then switched to Windows 8.1 and it gave the same errors.

Virtual Cop is a very old game that doesn't run on the newer operating systems. You can still download it through the download page on Software Informer, but that's it. I see that you have Windows 7 64bit. I have tested the application on Windows 8.1 Pro x64 bit and received the same error. Windows doesn't run the application because it's not compatible with.
Apply a compatibility tweak. Right click the setup file and choose Properties > Compatibility. Pick Windows XP Service Pack 3 from the list and then run the game again.
