Windows 10: Experiencing Compatibility Issues with Windows Update

I recently updated my Windows operating system, and I've noticed that some of my applications are behaving unexpectedly or showing compatibility issues. Is there a way to troubleshoot and resolve these compatibility problems post-Windows update? Are there any best practices for ensuring that my software and applications run smoothly after an update? Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!"

Compatibility issues in Windows 10

Hi Vicki,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. I regret the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you.

I suggest you to download and install the software from the developer website and check if it resolve the issue.

You can also install the program in compatibility mode and check if it resolves the issue.

Follow the below procedure.

Run the program in the compatibility mode.

If a program or driver written for an earlier version of Windows doesn't run properly in current Windows, then you could try using
compatibility mode on the program to hopefully allow it to run properly.

I suggest you to run the program/game in the compatibility mode and check if it helps. Follow the below steps:

• Right click on the program icon, click on Properties.
• Click the Compatibility tab.
• Check the Run this program in compatibility mode for box and select the Preferred
  Windows.
• Click on Apply and click OK button.

Check if it helps.

Please keep us posted on the issue. We will be happy to assist you further.

 

Experiencing slight pause every four seconds

Not surprisingly, installing Windows 10 1903 on my PC re-introduced the issue.

Following the same steps as before resolved the issue; namely:

1. Launch Device Manager
2. Select 'Storage Controllers'
3. Select 'Intel(R) Desktop/Workstation/Server Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller'
4. Press 'Update Drivers'
5. Press 'Browse'
6. Press 'Let Me Pick'
7. Uncheck 'Show compatible hardware'
8. Select 'Intel Corporation'
9. Select 'Intel(R) Desktop/Workstation/Server Express Chipset SATA RAID Controller'; ignore the 'This driver is not digitally signed!' message; this step replaces Windows 10's version of the driver with an older, unsigned version that does not manifest the issue
10. Press 'Next'
11. Press 'Close'
12. Reboot
