8And16BitAggregateBlts

Applications that are mitigated by 8/16-bit mitigation can exhibit performance issues. This layer aggregates all the blt operations and improves performance.

8And16BitDXMaxWinMode

Applications that use DX8/9 and are mitigated by the 8/16-bit mitigation are run in a maximized windowed mode. This layer mitigates applications that exhibit graphical corruption in full screen mode.

8And16BitGDIRedraw

This fix repairs applications that use GDI and that work in 8-bit color mode. The application is forced to repaint its window on RealizePalette.

AccelGdipFlush

This fix increases the speed of GdipFlush, which has perf issues in DWM.

AoaMp4Converter

This fix resolves a display issue for the AoA Mp4 Converter.

BIOSRead

This problem is indicated when an application cannot access the DevicePhysicalMemory object beyond the kernel-mode drivers, on any of the Windows Server® 2003 operating systems.

The fix enables OEM executable (.exe) files to use the GetSystemFirmwareTable function instead of the NtOpenSection function when the BIOS is queried for the DevicePhysical memory information.

BlockRunasInteractiveUser

This problem occurs when InstallShield creates installers and uninstallers that fail to complete and that generate error messages or warnings.

The fix blocks InstallShield from setting the value of RunAs registry keys to InteractiveUser Because InteractiveUser no longer has Administrator rights.

ChangeFolderPathToXPStyle

This fix is required when an application cannot return shell folder paths when it uses the SHGetFolder API.

The fix intercepts the SHGetFolder path request to the common appdata file path and returns the Windows® XP-style file path instead of the Windows Vista-style file path.

ClearLastErrorStatusonIntializeCriticalSection

This fix is indicated when an application fails to start.

The fix modifies the InitializeCriticalSection function call so that it checks the NTSTATUS error code, and then sets the last error to ERROR_SUCCESS.

CopyHKCUSettingsFromOtherUsers

This problem occurs when an application's installer must run in elevated mode and depends on the HKCU settings that are provided for other users.

The fix scans the existing user profiles and tries to copy the specified keys into the HKEY_CURRENT_USER registry area.

You can control this fix further by entering the relevant registry keys as parameters that are separated by the ^ Symbol; for example: SoftwareMyCompanyKey1^SoftwareMyCompanyKey2.

CorrectCreateBrushIndirectHatch

The problem is indicated by an access violation error message that displays and when the application fails when you select or crop an image.

The fix corrects the brush style hatch value, which is passed to the CreateBrushIndirect() function and enables the information to be correctly interpreted.

CorrectFilePaths

The problem is indicated when an application tries to write files to the hard disk and is denied access or receives a file not found or path not found error message.

The fix modifies the file path names to point to a new location on the hard disk.

CorrectFilePathsUninstall

This problem occurs when an uninstalled application leaves behind files, directories, and links.

The fix corrects the file paths that are used by the uninstallation process of an application.

CorrectShellExecuteHWND

This problem occurs when you start an executable (.exe) and a taskbar item blinks instead of an elevation prompt being opened, or when the application does not provide a valid HWND value when it calls the ShellExecute(Ex) function.

The fix intercepts the ShellExecute(Ex) calls, and then inspects the HWND value. If the value is invalid, this fix enables the call to use the currently active HWND value.

CustomNCRender

This fix instructs DWM to not render the non-client area, thereby forcing the application to do its own NC rendering. This often gives windows an XP look.

DelayApplyFlag

This fix applies a KERNEL, USER, or PROCESS flag if the specified DLL is loaded.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

DLL_Name;Flag_Type;Hexidecimal_Value

Where the DLL_Name is the name of the specific DLL, including the file extension. Flag_Type is KERNEL, USER, or PROCESS, and a Hexidecimal_Value, starting with 0x and up to 64-bits long.

DeprecatedServiceShim

The problem is indicated when an application tries to install a service that has a dependency on a deprecated service. An error message displays.

The fix intercepts the CreateService function calls and removes the deprecated dependency service from the lpDependencies parameter.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

Deprecated_ServiceApp_Service/Deprecated_Service2 App_Service2

Where Deprecated_Service is the name of the service that has been deprecated and App_Service is the name of the specific application service that is to be modified; for example, NtLmSspWMI.

DirectXVersionLie

This problem occurs when an application fails because it does not find the correct version number for DirectX®.

The fix modifies the DXDIAGN GetProp function call to return the correct DirectX version.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

MAJORVERSION.MINORVERSION.LETTER

For example, 9.0.c.

DetectorDWM8And16Bit

This fix offeres mitigation for applications that work in 8/16-bit display color mode because these legacy color modes are not supported in Windows 8 .

Disable8And16BitD3D

This fix improves performance of 8/16-bit color applications that render using D3D and do not mix directdraw.

Disable8And16BitModes

This fix disables 8/16-bit color mitigation and enumeration of 8/16-bit color modes.

DisableDWM

The problem occurs when some objects are not drawn or object artifacts remain on the screen in an application.

The fix temporarily disables the Windows Aero menu theme functionality for unsupported applications.

DisableFadeAnimations

The problem is indicated when an application fade animations, buttons, or other controls do not function properly.

The fix disables the fade animations functionality for unsupported applications.

DisableThemeMenus

The problem is indicated by an application that behaves unpredictably when it tries to detect and use the correct Windows settings.

The fix temporarily disables the Windows Aero menu theme functionality for unsupported applications.

DisableWindowsDefender

The fix disables Windows Defender for security applications that do not work with Windows Defender.

DWM8And16BitMitigation

The fix offers mitigation for applications that work in 8/16-bit display color mode because these legacy color modes are not supported in Windows 8.

DXGICompat

The fix allows application-specific compatibility instructions to be passed to the DirectX engine.

DXMaximizedWindowedMode

Applications that use DX8/9 are run in a maximized windowed mode. This is required for applications that use GDI/DirectDraw in addition to Direct3D.

ElevateCreateProcess

The problem is indicated when installations, de-installations, or updates fail because the host process calls the CreateProcess function and it returns an ERROR_ELEVATION_REQUIRED error message.

The fix handles the error code and attempts to recall the CreateProcess function together with requested elevation. If the fixed application already has a UAC manifest, the error code will be returned unchanged.

EmulateOldPathIsUNC

The problem occurs when an application fails because of an incorrect UNC path.

The fix changes the PathIsUNC function to return a value of True for UNC paths in Windows.

EmulateGetDiskFreeSpace

The problem is indicated when an application fails to install or to run, and it generates an error message that there is not enough free disk space to install or use the application, even though there is enough free disk space to meet the application requirements.

The fix determines the amount of free space, so that if the amount of free space is larger than 2 GB, the compatibility fix returns a value of 2 GB, but if the amount of free space is smaller than 2 GB, the compatibility fix returns the actual free space amount.

EmulateSorting

The problem occurs when an application experiences search functionality issues.

The fix forces applications that use the CompareStringW/LCMapString sorting table to use an older version of the table.

EmulateSortingWindows61

The fix emulates the sorting order of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 for various APIs.

EnableRestarts

The problem is indicated when an application and computer appear to hang because processes cannot end to allow the computer to complete its restart processes.

The fix enables the computer to restart and finish the installation process by verifying and enabling that the SeShutdownPrivilege service privilege exists.

ExtraAddRefDesktopFolder

The problem occurs when an application invokes the Release() method too many times and causes an object to be prematurely destroyed.

The fix counteracts the application's tries to obtain the shell desktop folder by invoking the AddRef() method on the Desktop folder, which is returned by the SHGetDesktopFolder function.

FailObsoleteShellAPIs

The problem occurs when an application fails because it generated deprecated API calls.

The fix either fully implements the obsolete functions or implements the obsolete functions with stubs that fail.

FailRemoveDirectory

The problem occurs when an application uninstallation process does not remove all of the application files and folders.

This fix fails calls to RemoveDirectory() when called with a path matching the one specified in the shim command-line. Only a single path is supported. The path can contain environment variables, but must be an exact path – no partial paths are supported.

The fix can resolve an issue where an application expects RemoveDirectory() to delete a folder immediately even though a handle is open to it.

FakeLunaTheme

The problem occurs when a theme application does not properly display: the colors are washed out or the user interface is not detailed.

The fix intercepts the GetCurrentThemeName API and returns the value for the Windows XP default theme, (Luna).

FlushFile

This problem is indicated when a file is updated and changes do not immediately appear on the hard disk. Applications cannot see the file changes.

The fix enables the WriteFile function to call to the FlushFileBuffers APIs, which flush the file cache onto the hard disk.

FontMigration

The fix replaces an application-requested font with a better font selection, to avoid text truncation.

ForceAdminAccess

The problem occurs when an application fails to function during an explicit administrator check.

The fix allows the user to temporarily imitate being a part of the Administrators group by returning a value of True during the administrator check.

ForceInvalidateOnClose

The fix invalidates any windows that exist under a closing or hiding window for applications that rely on the invalidation messages.

ForceLoadMirrorDrvMitigation

The fix loads the Windows 8 mirror driver mitigation for applications where the mitigation is not automatically applied.

FreestyleBMX

The fix resolves an application race condition that is related to window message order.

GetDriveTypeWHook

The application presents unusual behavior during installation; for example, the setup program states that it cannot install to a user-specified location.

The fix changes GetDriveType() so that only the root information appears for the file path. This is required when an application passes an incomplete or badly-formed file path when it tries to retrieve the drive type on which the file path exists.

GlobalMemoryStatusLie

The problem is indicated by a Computer memory full error message that displays when you start an application.

The fix modifies the memory status structure, so that it reports a swap file that is 400 MB, regardless of the true swap file size.

HandleBadPtr

The problem is indicated by an access violation error message that displays because an API is performing pointer validation before it uses a parameter.

The fix supports using lpBuffer validation from the InternetSetOptionA and InternetSetOptionW functions to perform the additional parameter validation.

HandleMarkedContentNotIndexed

The problem is indicated by an application that fails when it changes an attribute on a file or directory.

The fix intercepts any API calls that return file attributes and directories that are invoked from the %TEMP% directory, and resets the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NOT_CONTENT_INDEXED attribute to its original state.

HeapClearAllocation

The problem is indicated when the allocation process shuts down unexpectedly.

The fix uses zeros to clear out the heap allocation for an application.

IgnoreAltTab

The problem occurs when an application fails to function when special key combinations are used.

The fix intercepts the RegisterRawInputDevices API and prevents the delivery of the WM_INPUT messages. This delivery failure forces the included hooks to be ignored and forces DInput to use Windows-specific hooks.

IgnoreChromeSandbox

The fix allows Google Chrome to run on systems that have ntdll loaded above 4GB.

IgnoreDirectoryJunction

The problem is indicated by a read or access violation error message that displays when an application tries to find or open files.

The fix links the FindNextFileW, FindNextFileA, FindFirstFileExW, FindFirstFileExA, FindFirstFileW and FindFirstFileA APIs to prevent them from returning directory junctions.

IgnoreException

The problem is indicated when an application stops functioning immediately after it starts, or the application starts with only a cursor appearing on the screen.

The fix enables the application to ignore specified exceptions. By default, this fix ignores privileged-mode exceptions; however, it can be configured to ignore any exception.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

Exception1;Exception2

Where Exception1 and Exception2 are specific exceptions to be ignored. For example: ACCESS_VIOLATION_READ:1;ACCESS_VIOLATION_WRITE:1.

IgnoreFloatingPointRoundingControl

This fix enables an application to ignore the rounding control request and to behave as expected in previous versions of the application.

Before floating point SSE2 support in the C runtime library, the rounding control request was being ignored which would use round to nearest option by default. This shim ignores the rounding control request to support applications relying on old behavior.

IgnoreFontQuality

The problem occurs when application text appears to be distorted.

The fix enables color-keyed fonts to properly work with anti-aliasing.

IgnoreMessageBox

The problem is indicated by a message box that displays with debugging or extraneous content when the application runs on an unexpected operating system.

The fix intercepts the MessageBox* APIs and inspects them for specific message text. If matching text is found, the application continues without showing the message box.

IgnoreMSOXMLMF

The problem is indicated by an error message that states that the operating system cannot locate the MSVCR80D.DLL file.

The fix ignores the registered MSOXMLMF.DLL object, which Microsoft® Office 2007 loads into the operating system any time that you load an XML file, and then it fails the CoGetClassObject for its CLSID. This compatibility fix will just ignore the registered MSOXMLMF and fail the CoGetClassObject for its CLSID.

IgnoreSetROP2

The fix ignores read-modify-write operations on the desktop to avoid performance issues.

InstallComponent

The fix prompts the user to install.Net 3.5 or .Net 2.0 because .Net is not included with Windows 8.

LoadLibraryRedirect

The fix forces an application to load system versions of libraries instead of loading redistributable versions that shipped with the application.

LocalMappedObject

The problem occurs when an application unsuccessfully tries to create an object in the Global namespace.

The fix intercepts the function call to create the object and replaces the word Global with Local.

MakeShortcutRunas

The problem is indicated when an application fails to uninstall because of access-related errors.

The fix locates any RunDLL.exe-based uninstallers and forces them to run with different credentials during the application installation. After it applies this fix, the installer will create a shortcut that specifies a matching string to run during the application installation, thereby enabling the uninstallation to occur later.

ManageLinks

The fix intercepts common APIs that are going to a directory or to an executable (.exe) file, and then converts any symbolic or directory junctions before passing it back to the original APIs.

MirrorDriverWithComposition

The fix allows mirror drivers to work properly with acceptable performance with desktop composition.

MoveToCopyFileShim

The problem occurs when an application experiences security access issues during setup.

The fix forces the CopyFile APIs to run instead of the MoveFile APIs. CopyFile APIs avoid moving the security descriptor, which enables the application files to get the default descriptor of the destination folder and prevents the security access issue.

OpenDirectoryAcl

The problem is indicated by an error message that states that you do not have the appropriate permissions to access the application.

The fix reduces the security privilege levels on a specified set of files and folders.

PopCapGamesForceResPerf

The fix resolves the performance issues in PopCap games like Bejeweled2. The performance issues are visible in certain low-end cards at certain resolutions where the 1024x768 buffer is scaled to fit the display resolution.

PreInstallDriver

The fix preinstalls drivers for applications that would otherwise try to install or start drivers during the initial start process.

PreInstallSmarteSECURE

The fix preinstalls computer-wide CLSIDs for applications that use SmartSECURE copy protection, which would otherwise try to install the CLSIDs during the initial start process.

ProcessPerfData

The problem is indicated by an Unhandled Exception error message because the application tried to read the process performance data registry value to determine if another instance of the application is running.

The fix handles the failure case by passing a fake process performance data registry key, so that the application perceives that it is the only instance running.

PromoteDAM

The fix registers an application for power state change notifications.

PropagateProcessHistory

The problem occurs when an application incorrectly fails to apply an application fix.

The fix sets the _PROCESS_HISTORY environment variable so that child processes can look in the parent directory for matching information while searching for application fixes.

ProtectedAdminCheck

The problem occurs when an application fails to run because of incorrect Protected Administrator permissions.

The fix addresses the issues that occur when applications use non-standard Administrator checks, thereby generating false positives for user accounts that are being run as Protected Administrators. In this case, the associated SID exists, but it is set as deny-only.

RedirectCRTTempFile

The fix intercepts failing CRT calls that try to create a temporary file at the root of the volume, thereby redirecting the calls to a temporary file in the user's temporary directory.

RedirectHKCUKeys

The problem occurs when an application cannot be accessed because of User Account Control (UAC) restrictions.

The fix duplicates any newly created HKCU keys to other users' HKCU accounts. This fix is generic for UAC restrictions, whereby the HKCU keys are required, but are unavailable to an application at runtime.

RedirectMP3Codec

This problem occurs when you cannot play MP3 files.

The fix intercepts the CoCreateInstance call for the missing filter and then redirects it to a supported version.

RedirectShortcut

The problem occurs when an application cannot be accessed by its shortcut, or application shortcuts are not removed during the application uninstallation process.

The fix redirects all of the shortcuts created during the application setup to appear according to a specified path.

• Start Menu shortcuts: Appear in the ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsStart Menu directory for all users.

• Desktop or Quick Launch shortcuts:You must manually place the shortcuts on the individual user's desktop or Quick Launch bar.

This issue occurs because of UAC restrictions: specifically, when an application setup runs by using elevated privileges and stores the shortcuts according to the elevated user's context. In this situation, a restricted user cannot access the shortcuts.

You cannot apply this fix to an .exe file that includes a manifest and provides a runlevel.

RelaunchElevated

The problem occurs when installers, uninstallers, or updaters fail when they are started from a host application.

The fix enables a child .exe file to run with elevated privileges when it is difficult to determine the parent process with either the ElevateCreateProcess fix or by marking the .exe files to RunAsAdmin.

RetryOpenSCManagerWithReadAccess

The problem occurs when an application tries to open the Service Control Manager (SCM) and receives an Access Denied error message.

The fix retries the call and requests a more restricted set of rights that include the following:

• SC_MANAGER_CONNECT

• SC_MANAGER_ENUMERATE_SERVICE

• SC_MANAGER_QUERY_LOCK_STATUS

• STANDARD_READ_RIGHTS

  Note
  

  For more detailed information about this application fix, see Using the RetryOpenSCManagerwithReadAccess Fix.

RetryOpenServiceWithReadAccess

The problem occurs when an Unable to open service due to your application using the OpenService() API to test for the existence of a particular service error message displays.

The fix retries the OpenService() API call and verifies that the user has Administrator rights, is not a Protected Administrator, and by using read-only access. Applications can test for the existence of a service by calling the OpenService() API but some applications ask for all access when making this check. This fix retries the call but only asking for read-only access. The user needs to be an administrator for this to work

RunAsAdmin

The problem occurs when an application fails to function by using the Standard User or Protected Administrator account.

The fix enables the application to run by using elevated privileges. The fix is the equivalent of specifying requireAdministrator in an application manifest.

RunAsHighest

The problem occurs when administrators cannot view the read/write version of an application that presents a read-only view to standard users.

The fix enables the application to run by using the highest available permissions. This is the equivalent of specifying highestAvailable in an application manifest.

RunAsInvoker

The problem occurs when an application is not detected as requiring elevation.

The fix enables the application to run by using the privileges that are associated with the creation process, without requiring elevation. This is the equivalent of specifying asInvoker in an application manifest.

SecuROM7

The fix repairs applications by using SecuROM7 for copy protection.

SessionShim

The fix intercepts API calls from applications that are trying to interact with services that are running in another session, by using the terminal service name prefix (Global or Local) as the parameter.

At the command prompt, you can supply a list of objects to modify, separating the values by a double backslash (). Or, you can choose not to include any parameters, so that all of the objects are modified.

SetProtocolHandler

The fix registers an application as a protocol handler.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

Client;Protocol;App

Where the Client is the name of the email protocol, Protocol is mailto, and App is the name of the application.

SetupCommitFileQueueIgnoreWow

The problem occurs when a 32-bit setup program fails to install because it requires 64-bit drivers.

The fix disables the Wow64 file system that is used by the 64-bit editions of Windows, to prevent 32-bit applications from accessing 64-bit file systems during the application setup.

SharePointDesigner2007

The fix resolves an application bug that severely slows the application when it runs in DWM.

ShimViaEAT

The problem occurs when an application fails, even after applying acompatibility fix that is known to fix an issue. Applications that use unicows.dll or copy protection often present this issue.

The fix applies the specified compatibility fixes by modifying the export table and by nullifying the use of module inclusion and exclusion.

ShowWindowIE

The problem occurs when a web application experiences navigation and display issues because of the tabbing feature.

The fix intercepts the ShowWindow API call to address the issues that can occur when a web application determines that it is in a child window. This fix calls the real ShowWindow API on the top-level parent window.

SierraWirelessHideCDROM

The fix repairs the Sierra Wireless Driver installation, thereby preventing bugcheck.

Sonique2

The application uses an invalid window style, which breaks in DWM. This fix replaces the window style with a valid value.

SpecificInstaller

The problem occurs when an application installation file fails to be picked up by the GenericInstaller function.

The fix flags the application as being an installer file (for example, setup.exe), and then prompts for elevation.

SpecificNonInstaller

The problem occurs when an application that is not an installer (and has sufficient privileges) generates a false positive from the GenericInstaller function.

The fix flags the application to exclude it from detection by the GenericInstaller function.

SystemMetricsLie

The fix replaces SystemMetrics values and SystemParametersInfo values with the values of previous Windows versions.

TextArt

The application receives different mouse coordinates with DWM ON versus DWM OFF, which causes the application to hang. This fix resolves the issue.

TrimDisplayDeviceNames

The fix trims the names of the display devices that are returned by the EnumDisplayDevices API.

UIPICompatLogging

The fix enables the logging of Windows messages from Internet Explorer and other processes.

UIPIEnableCustomMsgs

The problem occurs when an application does not properly communicate with other processes because customized Windows messages are not delivered.

The fix enables customized Windows messages to pass through to the current process from a lower Desktop integrity level. This fix is the equivalent of calling the RegisterWindowMessage function, followed by the ChangeWindowMessageFilter function in the code.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

MessageString1 MessageString2

Where MessageString1 and MessageString2 reflect the message strings that can pass.

UIPIEnableStandardMsgs

The problem occurs when an application does not communicate properly with other processes because standard Windows messages are not delivered.

The fix enables standard Windows messages to pass through to the current process from a lower Desktop integrity level. This fix is the equivalent of calling the ChangeWindowMessageFilter function in the code.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

1055 1056 1069

Where 1055 reflects the first message ID, 1056 reflects the second message ID, and 1069 reflects the third message ID that can pass.

VirtualizeDeleteFileLayer

The fix virtualizes DeleteFile operations for applications that try to delete protected files.

VirtualizeDesktopPainting

This fix improves the performance of a number of operations on the Desktop DC while using DWM.

VirtualRegistry

The problem is indicated when a Component failed to be located error message displays when an application is started.

The fix enables the registry functions to allow for virtualization, redirection, expansion values, version spoofing, the simulation of performance data counters, and so on.

For more detailed information about this application fix, see Using the VirtualRegistry Fix.

VirtualizeDeleteFile

The problem occurs when several error messages display and the application cannot delete files.

The fix makes the application's DeleteFile function call a virtual call in an effort to remedy the UAC and file virtualization issues that were introduced with Windows Vista. This fix also links other file APIs (for example, GetFileAttributes) to ensure that the virtualization of the file is deleted.

VirtualizeHKCRLite

The problem occurs when an application fails to register COM components at runtime.

The fix redirects the HKCR write calls (HKLM) to the HKCU hive for a per-user COM registration. This operates much like the VirtualRegistry fix when you use the VirtualizeHKCR parameter; however, VirtualizeHKCRLite provides better performance.

HKCR is a virtual merge of the HKCUSoftwareClasses and HKLMSoftwareClasses directories. The use of HKCU is preferred if an application is not elevated and is ignored if the application is elevated.

You typically will use this compatibility fix in conjunction with the VirtualizeRegisterTypeLib fix.

For more detailed information about this application fix, see Using the VirtualizeHKCRLite Fix.

VirtualizeRegisterTypeLib

The fix, when it is used with the VirtualizeHKCRLite fix, ensures that the type library and the COM class registration happen simultaneously. This functions much like the RegistryTypeLib fix when the RegisterTypeLibForUser parameter is used.

WaveOutIgnoreBadFormat

This problem is indicated by an error message that states: Unable to initialize sound device from your audio driver; the application then closes.

The fix enables the application to ignore the format error and continue to function properly.

WerDisableReportException

The fix turns off the silent reporting of exceptions to the Windows Error Reporting tool, including those that are reported by Object Linking and Embedding-Database (OLE DB). The fix intercepts the RtlReportException API and returns a STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED error message.

Win7RTM/Win8RTM

The layer provides the application with Windows 7/Windows 8 compatibility mode.

WinxxRTMVersionLie

The problem occurs when an application fails because it does not find the correct version number for the required Windows operating system.

All version lie compatibility fixes address the issue whereby an application fails to function because it is checking for, but not finding, a specific version of the operating system. The version lie fix returns the appropriate operating system version information. For example, the VistaRTMVersionLie returns the Windows Vista version information to the application, regardless of the actual operating system version that is running on the computer.

Wing32SystoSys32

The problem is indicated by an error message that states that the WinG library was not properly installed.

The fix detects whether the WinG32 library exists in the correct directory. If the library is located in the wrong location, this fix copies the information (typically during the runtime of the application) into the %WINDIR% system32 directory.

WinSrv08R2RTM

WinXPSP2VersionLie

The problem occurs when an application experiences issues because of a VB runtime DLL.

The fix forces the application to follow these steps:

1. Open the Compatibility Administrator, and then select None for Operating System Mode.

2. On the Compatibility Fixes page, click WinXPSP2VersionLie, and then click Parameters.

   The Options for <fix_name> dialog box appears.

3. Type vbrun60.dll into the Module Name box, click Include, and then click Add.

4. Save the custom database.

   Note
   

   For more information about the WinXPSP2VersionLie application fix, see Using the WinXPSP2VersionLie Fix.

WRPDllRegister

The application fails when it tries to register a COM component that is released together with Windows Vista and later.

The fix skips the processes of registering and unregistering WRP-protected COM components when calling the DLLRegisterServer and DLLUnregisterServer functions.

You can control this fix further by typing the following command at the command prompt:

Component1.dll;Component2.dll

Where Component1.dll and Component2.dll reflect the components to be skipped.

WRPMitigation

The problem is indicated when an access denied error message displays when the application tries to access a protected operating system resource by using more than read-only access.

The fix emulates the successful authentication and modification of file and registry APIs, so that the application can continue.

WRPRegDeleteKey

The problem is indicated by an access denied error message that displays when the application tries to delete a registry key.

The fix verifies whether the registry key is WRP-protected. If the key is protected, this fix emulates the deletion process.

XPAfxIsValidAddress

The fix emulates the behavior of Windows XP for MFC42!AfxIsValidAddress.
