The compatibility tab is hidden for Microsoft Windows’ system files. To work around this issue, you can mark the executable as hidpi aware directly in registry.
Run the following command in command prompt:
reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "<exe path>" /f /t REG_SZ /d "~ HIGHDPIAWARE"
For example, to make Microsoft Management Console hidpi aware:
reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Windows\System32\mmc.exe" /f /t REG_SZ /d "~ HIGHDPIAWARE"
