hotfix icon Fix: Windows Ribbon is not displayed correctly

If you run a 32-bit application, like say,  Windows Live Movie Maker, that uses the Windows Ribbon and that uses the /largeaddressaware option on a computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, and you find that Windows Ribbon is not displayed correctly and the application does not work as expected,  then head over to KB2300535 to request and download a hotfix to address this issue.

The /largeaddressaware option tells the linker that the application can handle addresses larger than 2 gigabytes. By default, /largeaddressaware:NO is enabled if /largeaddressaware is not otherwise specified on the linker line.
