Set Desktop IE10 to Always Use Compatibility View

Is there a way to set the Windows 8 desktop version of IE10 to always display pages in IE10 Compatibility View?  I know I can go to developer tools and set this manually, but the setting only propagates to that specific tab.  I want IE10 Compatibility View to be the default for all tabs.

 

Thanks!
