How do I programmitcally launch EXE by disabling compatibility mode?












0















User launches my EXE runs in compatibility mode which launches another EXE but I don't want the child EXE to inherit the compatibility mode settings. How do I achieve it? Cannot find any resources which makes this work.



I tried CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP but it does not work.



I'm using ShellExecuteEx to launch the child EXE (it requires administrative privilege)






windows winapi createprocess shellexecute shellexecuteex

  • Wouldn't it be easier to launch the parent process without compatibility mode?

    Ask them not to use compat mode is the easiest way. Will you program function without compat mode?

You could create a task in Windows scheduler with your application and then run it.
