    [Solution] Click Change settings for all users > Uncheck Run in compatibility and Run as Admin. Now you should be able to change compatibility normally.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    As you can see, I can't manually choose my compatibility mode. When I run the troubleshooter, I am given Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista SP2. This seemed to happen after I transferred all my data from HDD to SSD. Reinstalling the game didn't change anything, so I suspect something needs to be done in the registry, though I'm not sure what.

    Note that Run as Admin is also grayed out.

    I'm on Win 10 x64.

    I have the same problem, are you getting parameter error?

    Occasionally. More often, I get firewall error. Usually able to log in after a couple tries.

    as of now, I just run it by right clicking, pressing troubleshoot compatibility, then checking display option, then clicking on test~

    Thanks, that allowed me to change the settings! Still wondering why I can't do it normally, but it'll do.

    For me I can just click change settings for all users, unmark the compatibility option and after that change it normally.
    (without it being grayed out)
