I'm having a unique problem here. As some of you mayo r may not have read in the cafe, I've been trying to get Sim City 4 to run in a window. I found the appropriate command line argument, and it works now, but only if I run it executed from the command line.
During my trial and error attempts to get this app to run windowed, one of the things that I did was to turn on compatability mode and attempt to run the app and make it think it was on a 98 machine. That didnt do anything, so I turned it off....or so I thought.
If I run the app either from a shortcut or by double-clicking the executeable directly, it outright refuses to run. Using a process explorer, I have discovered that despite having de-activated compatability mode in its shortcut, explorer continues to attempt to run it in compatability mode.
So my question is this: Where can I go to attempt to forcibly remove this app from the compatability mode list? Or what stemps do I have to take?
I've already searched the registry for the apps name, and Ive deleted and re-created the shortcut for the game several times with no effect. So, how can I get compatability mode to bug off?
