The use of software on operating systems that are no longer supported by Microsoft can pose a security risk. In the current release, conzept 16 also supports the operating systems Windows 7/8/8.1 and the Windows Server versions 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2.
In the meantime, support and extended security updates (ESU) for these operating systems have been discontinued by Microsoft. Software components that are necessary for conzept 16 to run are also gradually being discontinued for these operating systems.
DThe 5.9.07 release is planned for September 2025.
The following systems will be supported by conzept 16 as of version 5.9.07:
- Windows 10, 11
- Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022, 2025
The following systems are no longer supported by conzept 16 as of version 5.9.07:
- Windows 7 (32- und 64-Bit)
- Windows 8/8.1 (32- und 64-Bit)
- Windows Server 2008 R2
- Windows Server 2012 R2
The operability of older releases (< 5.9.07) under these operating systems is of course not affected by this.
