Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are unable to use software which you were able to use in Windows 8.

This usually occurs if the software is not designed to work on Windows 8.1. Most programs created for earlier versions of Windows will work in this version of Windows, but some older programs might run poorly or not at all.

I would suggest you to run the software in compatibility mode and see whether the issue gets fixed.

Please follow the steps below and let us know if it resolves the issue:

Run the Software in Compatibility Mode

Please refer to the article below:

Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows:

Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with updated status of the issue to assist you further.
