EDIT: Nevermind problem solved. See solution below.
Can anyone confirm if the widescreen patch works (link below) on Windows 8.1? I'm trying to get 1920 x 1080 resolution but it doesn't work for me. I don't know if this info is necessary, but I also installed the unofficial patch (1.1).
Would you also recommend that the unofficial patch be installed seeing that it changes a few of the game mechanics (such as increased minion population from 100 to 150, etc.)?

Solution: The contents of the widescreen patch were to be copied to the game directory with the executable file to launch the game. Only on examining the game's shortcut icon I learned that there was a subdirectory "\ReleaseExe" that had another executable that started the game. Widescreen patch worked when the files were copied to that directory.
