SOLVED Game compatible with windows 7 not with windows 10

[robert reid]

How do you run game on windows 10 that works on windows 7? When I check properties there is no compatibilty box to check!

If you need to install the game then you ought to be able to right-click in the installer and select Properties then click the Compatibility tab then make the adjustments required to run in Windows 7 mode, then run the installer.

When I select Properties there is NO Compatibility tab

What is the game then?

Do you install it or run it off a dvd?

tiger woods pga tour 2008 - installed in windows 7 from dvd. when I installed windows 10 the game ran for 2 months with no problems. now when I try to play the game I get a message that the app is not compatible with the operating system (WINDOWS 10).

Have you tried the troubleshooter built in to Windows 10?

• Click Search
• In search box type Run programs made for previous versions of Windows then press Enter key
• In window that opens click Next
• When list populates select your game and click Next

If that does not resolve issue go here: http://coursedownloads.com/forum/posts.asp?post=10231&forum=11 where GunPower61 (Site Admin) on their second posting has provided method to get it running on Windows 10.

Thank you for your help. The game seems to be playing ok. I will remember this in case it happens again.
