Help me undo what caused the "Run a legacy CPL elevated" prompt...

[Guest]

Today from the control panel I ran the "NVIDIA Control Panel" program. After
I closed the program Windows asked me if the program opened correctly (which
it did). I ACCIDENTALLY chose the equivilent of "no", and now each time I
run the program I get prompted to "Run a legacy CPL elevated" before it opens
the program. Is there a way to un-do what I did so it opens without the
prompt like it used to?

The program is also available by right-clicking the desktop and clicking
"NVIDIA Control Panel" from the shell menu. When I launch it this way it
doesn't do the "legacy" prompt, it's only when I launch it from the Control
Panel.

I know it doesn't make a difference since the app opens and closes just fine
either way, but I'd like to make it the way it was. Thanks!

Right-click on the executable file, Properties, Compatibility.

OK, I found the file. It's located at C:\Windows\System32\nvcpl.cpl

I tried right clicking and looking around but I can't find anything that I
can "un-check" to get it to no longer need the "run a legacy CPL elevated"
prompt. It only needs this prompt when launched from the control panel, not
when it's launched directly or from right-clicking on the desktop.

Is there a way to re-set it back to how it was when it's launched from
control panel?

Sorry, I was looking at a .exe file. It seems that a .cpl file lacks the
compatibility settings that .exe has. I don't have any further advice on this.
