Compatibility Mode for XBox GamePass Version?

[Anonymous01]

How can I enable Compatibility Mode for CK3's executable in the GamePass version?

With other versions, you simply right-click the .exe and adjust the properties.

Compatibility for Windows 8 seems to cure crashing for some Windows 10 Steam version users, so I'd like to try with the Microsoft version.

Microsoft lock down the WindowsApps file area very tightly. It is possible to get access to the ck3.exe in there but you'll need to do some pretty serious googling to get through their roadblocks!

I took up your challenge, Andrew!

For anyone else having this problem, the key is adjusting Permissions in the Folder Properties.

Microsoft defaults the WindowsApps Folder to Hidden and/or Read Only.
