Compatibility options for a program, such as Word, is in relation to the operating system under which the program is running.

Since one of the compatibility options involves forcing a program to run "elevated" (= with administrator privileges), it would be worth testing the compatibility settings. Of course, I can't promise that it will work, but trying won't cause any harm...
