How to disable global ASLR setting on Windows Server 2016 Essentials?

-

hello:

i'm trying deploy old custom software on computer running windows server 2016 essentials. used run on windows 7 professional, 64-bit, without issues.

the software in question provides interface hardware used on site. unfortunately software vendor no longer in business, , replacing competitor product cost many thousands of $$. need find solution in changing settings in windows first.

i did search , page explains issues i'm seeing.  the software in question uses old borland database engine (bde) not compatible with address space layout randomization (aslr) , we're getting sporadic crashes , memory errors.

so question -- can disable aslr in windows on global level? @ least testing purposes see if solves issue.

and, second question -- else can change in windows server 2016 make run more windows 7 pro may causing issues software?

hi,

far know, there no legitimate way disable aslr. security enhancement, and, not recommended disable it.

reference blog - how disable address space layout randomization (aslr) – detail explanation:
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/winsdk/2009/11/30/how-to-disable-address-space-layout-randomization-aslr/

article provides possibility “dealing aslr when analyzing malware on windows 8.1”, can considered reference. please note that, microsoft not provide official way disable , not recommended. besides, remember have system/data backup before changing:
http://digital-forensics.sans.org/blog/2014/02/17/malware-analysis-and-aslr-on-windows-8-1#

please note: since web site not hosted microsoft, link may change without notice. microsoft not guarantee accuracy of information.

>what else can change in windows server 2016 make run more windows 7 pro…
windows server , windows client different os type, each has own working mechanism, complex , different list differences between them. , question relate 3rd party software, compatibility problem between software , windows server os, afraid unable provide more detail explanation on question.

best regards,
