Operating System
Windows
Please NOTE: All of our current software programs are Windows native and run on the following versions of Windows.
- Windows 7 (depending upon the final Microsoft build)
- Windows 8
- Windows 10
Please NOTE: Our current software programs require the Microsoft .Net Framework 4 Client Profile or .NET Framework 4.7.2 to function. To determine if the .NET Framework is installed, go to Control Panel and Add/Remove Programs, Programs and Features, or Uninstall Programs. Scroll down and look for the list of .NET Frameworks installed in the list of installed programs. If the .Net Framework is not installed, your computer will need to be connected to the internet during the program installation process so that the .Net Framework can be installed at the same time.
