Hi,
I looked in the forum but can't find this information.
Does Acorn REV4 can run on Windows 7 ?
Thank you
Windows 7 < free upgrade to Windows 10 >

Re: Windows 7
No. If you want any help with troubleshooting, you will have to run a PC with minimum requirements met.
Unofficially, yes it will probably work.

Re: Windows 7
Thanks.
The pc that I want to use for Acorn exceed all requirements, but it is running windows 7.
I will try, and use another PC on windows 10 if it doesn't work.

Re: Windows 7
You can still get Windows 10 for free. Any valid Windows 7 activation code will work with a new Windows 10 install.
Cheers,

Re: Windows 7
I just upgraded a WIN7 machine to Windows 10. NOTE: YOU MUST Have a legal legitimate version of Windows 7 on the PC with the KEY code. If you don't, don't bother.
1. Go to the Download Windows 10 website.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/softwar ... /windows10
2. Under Create Windows 10 installation media, click Download tool now and Run.
3. Choose Upgrade this PC now, assuming this is the only PC you're upgrading. (If you're upgrading a different machine, choose Create installation media for another PC, and save the installation files.)
4. Follow the prompts.
5. When the upgrade is complete, go to Settings Update & Security > Activation, and you should see a digital license for Windows 10.
Reminder, for support please follow this post: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=383

Re: Windows 7 < free upgrade to Windows 10 >
While not supported, I've just upgraded to 4.20 and it still works fine on Windows 7 even though Windows 7 is unsupported.

Certainly your choice. But don't expect much support from Centroid
