Compatibility Mode

Up until a couple of days ago, I have had almost no issues with installing programs on my Vista box computer. That was until I started to install a program that was not Vista compatible. The program was RSS Anouncer. It install just fine, but I kept getting errors when I tried to run it.

Then I remembered about Vista's Compatibility mode. So I right clicked on the program icon, then went down to Properties. I clicked on the Compatibility tab. After checking the the box Run this program in compatibility mode for:, I selected Windows XP (Service Pack 2).

I started to run the program, again. It start up and ran just fine. So I left clicked on the OK button and went on with my work.
