installation - Visual Studio 2012 Install Fails: Program Compatibility Mode is on -
i'm trying install visual studio 2012 express windows desktop , every time run installer error:
"windows program compatibility mode on. turn off , try setup again."
i checked file properties , compatibility mode off. googling found changing name "vs_premium.exe
" or "vs_ultimate.exe
" or changing registry keys might help, name changes had no effect, , there no registry keys delete. have restarted machine several times no avail.
changing visual studio 2013 not option me, work computer has visual studio 2012 on not update 2013, , need work on project on both computers.
the computer using has windows 8.1 hp pavilion g6. have installed visual studio 2013 windows desktop, web, , windows, 30-day trial professional (which has expired). have installed visual studio 2012 windows phone have not used yet.
previous posts correct in compatibility mode appears based entirely on file names. there simple method determining precisely name windows expects:
right-click file, select properties , navigate details tab. there should entry labelled "original filename". rename file accordingly , should run happily.
