Solve : window mode gone??

Answer» <html><body><p>I remember being able to force programs (games in my case) to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/run-1192138" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RUN">RUN</a> in windowed mode under xp. Now in Vista I can't seem to find this option - even when going to the root exe rather than the shortcut. From memory it was in the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/compatability" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about COMPATABILITY">COMPATABILITY</a> setting section.<br/>Has this feature been removed or moved; and if it is moved where to?<br/><br/>ThanksIsn't this a game option? I was not aware the operating system could do this?...adding to hejlik...while playing games, disable aero...<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/right-239192" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RIGHT">RIGHT</a> click on your game executable, and select properties. Then go to the compatability tab, and check the box 'Disable Desktop Composition'. That's aero. Now, when you run the game, Vista will switch you to Vista basic, and then execute your game.
