Best Answer

Probably the best way is to use compatibility mode.
To do this
Make a short cut to the program file. To do this, right click on the program *.exe file and select the 'make a short cut' option.
Now, right click on the short cut.
In the pull down menu, select 'properties'.
A new box will appear with some tabs along the top. One of these is 'Compatibility mode'
Click on this and you can select which versions of windows you want to emulate and how many colours are used on the screen.
When finished setting up close the box with 'OK'.
Next time you want to run the program, click on this special short cut, and the system will set up to run in an older version of windows.

How can you reuse a trial version program after expiry?

This is tricky, most modern software places entries into the Windows registry - the heart of Windows. Even when the trial version of software is uninstalled fully, entries (keys) for the software can still remain in the registry. When the trial software is reinstalled, it checks these entries in the registry and therefore "knows" if the software has been previously installed, used and if the trial period has expired. Because of the way these entries are placed, most registry cleaners will not remove them either, as they appear current and valid. Further info can be found here: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-reinstall-trial-software-after-trial-period-has-expired/ WARNING: Unless you are experienced in accessing and modifying the Windows Registry, it is strongly advised to avoid making any changes, as these particular entries are usually buried and they are not obvious. Deleting entries in the Windows registry incorrectly can cause system instability and even failure.
