(Windows 8 Netbook Problem- Solved) This app can’t open. The screen resolution is too low for this app to run

In Windows 8 when you try to run one of the Windows Store apps you get a message saying “This app cannot open” followed by “The screen resolution is too low for this app to run.”  Then is gives you a shortcut to “Change your screen resolution”.  If this has happened to you chances are you are tying to run Windows 8 on a Netbook, Tablet, or older Laptop.  I have found a way around however.  Pictured above is the error I am talking about.  The lowest screen resolution supported by the Windows Store apps is 1024 X 768 (this is the minimum requirement that can run on windows 8) about this problem I have some examples to show for you to solve this situation.

First thing first, make sure that you're graphic/ display driver is correctly installed on your system. If so, followed this steps: First- open run type "regedit" (without quote). Second- press Ctrl+F on the text box type "Display1_DownScalingSupported" (without quote) then check "Match whole sting only" click "Find Next" and press F3 if you have installed more than one graphics.

Then, this is the result of the search. On the "Display1_DownScalingSupported". Change the Value Data from 0 to 1 then hit OK. 


 Close the Registry Editor and Restart the computer.

Now you can changed the resolution to 1024 X 768.To check this go to the Desktop and right-click on it and select Screen Resolution.

-Good Luck and Enjoy your Windows 8-
