Use the previous version of Microsoft Pinyin input method

Since Win 10 20H2, there are problems with Microsoft Pinyin and some of the problems can be resolved by using the compatibility mode, namely to use the previous version of Microsoft Pinyin input method. My question is : how to set this compatibility mode in a program instead of via the windows UI? What is the registry path
for the compatibility mode? Thanks in advance.
