The Compatibility Administrator tool helps you resolve potential application-compatibility issues before deploying a new version of Windows to your organization. Compatibility Administrator provides:

  • Compatibility fixes, compatibility modes, and AppHelp messages that you can use to resolve specific compatibility issues.

  • Tools for creating customized compatibility fixes, compatibility modes, AppHelp messages, and compatibility databases.

  • A query tool that you can use to search for installed compatibility fixes on your local computers.

The following flowchart shows the steps for using the Compatibility Administrator tool to create your compatibility fixes, compatibility modes, and AppHelp messages.
