This is a very basic utility that modifies the NT headers of an application to make it run on older Windows versions than it was designed for.
It will NOT fix compatibility issues caused by unavailable APIs. The only thing it will do is trick the Windows loader into running the newer application.

Usage: winvertroll.exe <target executable> [optional major version] [optional minor version, must be supplied if major is supplied]

If major and minor version are not supplied, the application will use 4 as the major version and 0 as the minor version. It's probably best to use it this way unless you have to have a very specific version for some bizarre reason.
