| Steam Compatibility Mode Forced |

I know, this isn't the steam support forum, but no one has replied to my post there, so I figured that I may get help faster here. Windows 7 decided to force steam to run in compatibility mode for some stupid reason (It said that steam is not running right, so it forced compatiblity mode, I had NO say.) So when I start up steam, it gives me a warning about it, so I'm trying to turn it off, but the thing is, steam.exe has no compatibility settings set, so windows did this in some random menu I don't know about. I need help figuring out how to shut compatibility off. |

Whoda, I can't access the first thing, and second thing is completely irrelevant. EDIT: oh wait, nope, it still is running in compatibility mode even though it's off. WHAT THE forget IS WRONG WITH WINDOWS?! |
