How do reset you the program back to Windows 7 compatibility mode?

I tried to get a program runs on Windows 7, but it would freeze upwards.  Then I changed a setting in the program compatibility, try a Windows XP mode and a mode of Windows Vista (without success).  How to get out the compatibility settings and just go back to Windows 7?  Thank you.

  • How do reset you the BIOS password?

    Hello

    I have a Sony laptop where the hard drive gone bad. It has a BIOS password on it. I replaced the hard drive and went into the BIOS to change the boot device priority. Now my BIOS password won't work, and after three failed attempts, it gives me a 16-digit hash and ask you a unique password. There is of course a way to generate a unique password based on this hash table, but I've looked everywhere and it seems that there are people who know how do it, but none of them don't tell you exactly how. I called Sony support and they told me I had to send the laptop to get the password removed, but I don't really have time for that. How can I generate a unique password and access my machine again?

    Thanks in advance.

    HI Robdma01,

    I uninstall applications CS6, and then use the lighter tool to ensure that all got deleted. Leaving unattended update applications should not cause this kind of problem. When you reinstall / update I would try to do so under different conditions, disable any antivirus software that is running and try to install within a new user account with administrative rights.
