Update Fireworks 8 for Windows 7

[MichelleKidsExp]

I have been using Fireworks and just had to get a new laptop which is running Windows 7.  How can I get Fireworks to run on Windows 7?

Hello Michelle,

you're assuming - and rightly so in my view - your FW8 will not work in WIN7. So I would try to investigate using (the followed is translated from my German WIN):

"Win Help and Support" (Win Hilfe und Support) >>> search "compatibility" (kompatibilität) >>> Open compatibility troubleshoot program (Öffnen der Problembehandlung für die Programmkompatibilität) >>> Click here to open compatibility troubleshoot program. (Klicken Sie hier, um die Problembehandlung für die Programmkompatibilität zu öffnen.) >>> Now follow these instructions (see screenshot):
