Of course, i do accept, when a program was not properly installed and microsoft alerts to run the program in the best mode, say xp sp3 mode for some of the programs to work in windows 7. But when i installed malware bytes, and installed and run it, it does not alert any compatibility, but it is showing as running in compatible mode when checking with check tool by malware bytes. It does show in app compatibility flags settings in the registry. I just enclose the same part as extract from their scan program checkdetails. txt.
                               Why? Is the machine auto changes to compatible mode? Or is there anything more to it? I have downloaded the malware bytes from their site
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".
