Hello!
I am following ReactOS since I was in a secondary school. I saw a new version announcement and read there :
"Mark has added the ability for ReactOS to present itself as Windows 8.1 with the Version APIs".
I would like to ask if it is possible to switch that presentation wherever or it was forced for a entire situation ?
Unfortunately a lot of programs is not compatible with xp/2003 so it won't run on ReactOS. I mean newest Firefox, chrome or Opera. It requires at least windows 7.
Regards
Compatibility

Re: Compatibility
When a program or setup requires a specific windows version, reactos changes its identity on the fly to meet the requirements
Re: Compatibility
Does it work in final 0.4.9 ?
I tried it on VirtualBox and when I try to run a newest firefox installer - it says that system is not supported and after clicking OK nothing appears.

It works the same as on windows:
Context menu of the application (or shortcut) you select compatibility mode.
