Compatibility tab on Windows vista.
 
Sorry that this is completely random and has nothing to do with Menewsha but I have no where else to go for help. ;-;


So I'm trying to download MapleStory.
But apparently it doesn't work on Windows Vista; my labtop.
They give me this information;

Running MapleStory on Windows Vista:
MapleStory does work on Windows Vista. One suggestion to have MapleStory compatible with Windows Vista is setting the compatibility of the program. Right-click your shortcut to MapleStory or the exe file, select Properties, and click on the Compatibility tab. Once you have selected the tab, check the box Run this program in compatibility mode for: and select Windows XP in the drop-down menu. We also suggest that you restart your computer after applying the changes. MapleStory should work once these changes are applied.

Where the hell is the Compatibility tab? ><
Could anyone walk me through this?
I'd really appreciate it.

Try in the computer section of the media. The info desk is for mene questions...

First, create a shortcut to your desktop. Right click the icon and select Properties. There should be 3-4 tabs, one should say Compatibility, it's like the 3rd one. Then follow the rest of the instructions... I don't currently have Maplestory, but many of my other icons (PlayOnline, Halo, and Mozilla Firefox) has these. Also, I heard somewhere that Laptops don't work for Mapelstory, but I'm not so sure, I think it's just Macs.

Sorry, I didn't know that.
If someone could move this over there, I would gladly appreciate it. :)

Mine doesn't say Compatibility. There is 4 tabs; General, Shortcut, Security, Details.

I think MapleStory does work on Laptops, I guess I will find out sooner or later.

Mine has "general, shortcut, and compatibility"... Try right clicking the "patch" icon too. But I don't know... it probably doesn't work on laptops, try ask around in the MS forums.

Patch? @[email protected]
I'm so confused.
Maybe it doesn't work on laptops. ;-;

Oh well.
I guess I don't get it play it then. :(

Well thank you for your help.

MapleStory's forums are so confusing to use, I tried using it before I went on here. Dx

There should be a folder named "Nexon" in either your "Local Disk" or "Program Files" (which is located in Local Disk). In there, there's a folder named "Maplestory", go in there. There should be a whole bunch of folders along with single icons. There should be a mushroom icon that says "Patch".
