Windows 10: Some of program does not launch

Couple of questions are there,

Que 1.

Two days ago, I have reinstalled Windows 10 Pro and activated with Windows 10 Edu digital licence. All drivers were installed automatically with Windows Update. Some of application such like QGIS v3.10 and Free Download Manager v 5.1.38.7312 do not launch or running. But MS Office, AutoCAD and Apps installed from Microsoft App Store are working smoothly.

Que 2.

Touch pad driver ASUS Smart Gesture was installed with Windows Update. But while it's running, sucks a lot of processor value. So I had to uninstall that to get normal.

Some of Error messages extracted from Control Panel\System and Security\Security and Maintenance\Problem Details

Windows Installer reconfigured the product. Product Name: ASUS Smart Gesture.Product Version: 4.0.24. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: ASUS. Reconfiguration success or error status: 1602.

Why did the startup window get cleared?

I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

 

'The program was started in compatibility mode' during launching Onecklicstarter

Hello,

Thank you for posting your concern in Microsoft community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family.

If the program you are referring to is written to work with older version of Windows, Windows 10 will still try to run the program in Compatibility Mode. Program compatibility is a mode in Windows that lets you run programs written for earlier versions of
Windows.

I suggest you to reinstall the program in Compatibility mode and check if it helps. follow the below steps.

• 
  Right click the setup file for the program, this can be designated as
  setup.exe or something similar. Click Troubleshoot Compatibility
  to launch the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter wizard which will check for issues.
  
• 
  Select the option “Troubleshoot program”
  and depending on the problems you are experiencing when attempting to install or use the software, check off the problems. Click on Next.
  
• 
  Select a version of Windows the program is known to work in.
  
• 
  Click on Next and then follow the on screen instructions.
  

If the issue still persist, you need to contact the software vendor and check for the latest updates to make the program run on Windows 10.

Let us know the results.

 

Cortana and launching programs

Hi there!

Try to double check if your Spotify App is installed properly. Try to do these steps to find out:

• Press Windows Key + R button on your keyboard
• On the text field in the run command type appwiz.cpl
• You should be able to see Spotify on the list

If your Spotify is not listed there, it can only mean that your Spotify Software has been placed on your PC by copying the whole client from a External Storage.

If your Spotify is listed on the appwiz.cpl . Try to restart your PC and check if Cortana can now launch the app instead of searching the Web.
