Lesson 5: Configuring Application Compatibility
• Common Application Compatibility Problems
• Common Mitigation Methods
• Updating Shims
Common Application Compatibility Problems
Common Application Compatibility problems
may relate to the following areas:
• Setup and installation of applications
• User Account Control
• Windows Resource Protection (WRP)
• Internet Explorer Protected Mode
• 64-bit architecture
• Windows Filtering Platform (WFP)
• Operating system version changes
• Kernel-mode drivers
• Deprecated components
Common Mitigation Methods
Common mitigation methods include:
• Modifying the application configuration
• Applying updates or service packs
• Upgrading the application
• Modifying the security configuration
• Running the application in a virtualized environment
• Using application compatibility features built into
the operating system
• Selecting another application
Updating Shims
• A shim is software, added to an existing application
or other program, to provide some form of
enhancement or stability
• In the application compatibility context, a shim
refers to a compatibility fix
Use the Compatibility Administrator Tool to:
• Search for a compatibility fix for an existing application
• Create a new compatibility fix
To deploy a compatibility fix:
• Store the compatibility fix database locally or in a network
location
• Use the Sdbinst.exe command-line tool to install the
compatibility fix

Lab Scenario
• The first batch of Windows 7 computers has arrived. As
part of the deployment process, you need to migrate user
settings from existing Windows XP computers to the new
Windows 7 computers.
• You are rolling out Windows 7 to the computers in your
organization. To do this you are creating a reference
image of Windows 7 that can be applied to other
computers. The image is generalized by using Sysprep.
• You are performing a manual test of the deployment
process for new images. Eventually, this process will be
automated. In this test run, you are ensuring that you
have the correct syntax for all of the commands used to
start the capture of user settings from the old computer,
apply the reference image to the new computer, and then
apply user settings to the new computer.
Lab Review
• Why should you use Sysprep before capturing an image?
• Why is Windows PE required as part of the imaging
process?
