Consider adding some more information to your question -- such as OS version. – Daniel Beck Nov 10 '11 at 20:28
Compatability at least in XP seems to be set on the Program itself in the registry, even though it seems like your tagging a shortcut. *THE USERS KEY\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers* Try and test that, set it on the executable itself , then test it from your launcher. – Psycogeek Nov 10 '11 at 20:52
Thank you so much! All you have to do is right click on the executable itself. Can't believe I didn't try this before – Oliver Tessmer Nov 11 '11 at 15:45

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

If you always want to run the app in compatibility mode, you can select it in the start menu or explorer, right click > properties, then go to the compatibility tab and choose "run this program in compatibility mode."

The menu looks like this:
