Windows 7: Mitigating Application Issues Using Shims
When planning a migration to newer Windows client operating systems, application compatibility is an important consideration. While a significant percentage of applications just work, still others require additional remediation. The Windows Application Compatibility Infrastructure (shim engine) provides one option for resolving compatibility challenges with Windows. By applying Application Fixes (shims) to a specific application, you can modify the behavior of Windows, but only for that application. Shims, as the name suggests, work by injecting new code between the running application and Windows itself. This is important when you consider the security of the system: because we execute the code inside of a shim before your application calls into Windows, the code inside of a shim is not able to do anything that your application could not do, were you to modify the source code. Consequently, you will be able to apply fixes to existing applications, without modifying the source code, but still have the same safety and security that Windows Vista and Windows 7 provides. The most challenging aspect of working with shims is simply learning which shims are available, and how to configure them. In this lab, we walk through a demo application that contains a number of issues that break compatibility with Windows Vista and Windows 7, and then use the Windows Application Compatibility Infrastructure (shim engine) to resolve these issues--all without touching the source code at all!
