XP compatibility mode XP Mode how to solve the problem after XP is out of service, this article introduces the corresponding analysis and solution in detail, hoping to help more partners who want to solve this problem to find a more simple and feasible method.

In addition to the Internet financial management "Yu'e Bao", the hottest topic after 20 years is the recent suspension of XP service! can you still use XP after it is out of service? what should I do when XP stops service? Which version of the operating system do I want to change? Win7 or Win8? Some users would rather wait until the upcoming release of Windows 9 than give up XP....

When XP stops service, if it is connected to the Internet, it will be more vulnerable to viruses or unknown vulnerabilities, and its security will be greatly reduced. The problems that many friends worry about mainly focus on two aspects: software compatibility and operating habits. Also afraid to change the new operating system, not quite adapt to the new operating interface, can not find "familiar" menu options; afraid that the new system for software compatibility will have some bug.

Today, with regard to the issues we are concerned about, there are similar products to help you solve these problems when Windows 7 appeared. Its name is: XP Mode, or XP compatibility mode! This mode is specifically designed to address the incompatibility of some applications under Windows7, through which these applications may be run in XP compatibility mode, similar to a virtual machine system. We just need to install it on the new system and we can call and run all the software in the new local system.

So, how do we install and run this XP Mode mode?

This XP Mode is a special feature that comes with Windows 7. Make sure your CPU supports virtualization technology first!

Whether CPU supports virtualization technology or not, we need to use a small piece of software: SecurAble. He can help us test whether CPU supports virtualization. A single file can be run to detect the effect:

Come to think of it, the above results are quite clear at a glance, right? Show NO is not supported, show YES is support!

Of course, there is a third situation:

If Locked ON is displayed on the far right (yes, BIOS has enabled this feature) and Locked Off is displayed (it means that virtualization technology is disabled in BIOS, but it does not mean that CPU supports virtualization technology, it may be because CPU does not support this technology, and this feature is automatically disabled in BIOS), please go to BIOS to set the relevant hardware virtualization (hardware Virtualization) switch to try (how to turn it on, please find the relevant BIOS settings).

When we meet the above conditions, it shows that our CPU supports virtualization technology and can install XP Mode mode. XP Mode is a combination of Virutal PC virtual technology and Windows XP preconfigured images to create a virtual Windows XP environment, so we also need to install a Windows Virtual PC. Windows Virtual PC is the "Typer 2 Hypervisor" in Windows 7, that is, virtualization based on the host operating system, which allows users to run multiple Windows system instances on a single device.

Reading the article feels very stiff and troublesome, in fact, there are only two steps: install the Chinese version of Windows XP Mode, and then install Windows Virtual PC (which is actually a patch pack), and then you can use it! XP Mode needs Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Enterprise or Windows 7 Ultimate system, this estimate is satisfied, you know!
