Is Windows11 the supported platform for FSM6.0Update10 Smart Client environment?
We checked on the IFS portal and installation manual, we could only find that windows10 is the supported platform. How about Windows11?

Here as below are our questions in summary,
1.Is Windows11 the supported platform for FSM6.0Update10 SmartClient?

2.If the answer of No.1 is no for now, then when will Windows11 be the supported platform?

3.From where should we check the information about the supported platform?

Hi @AAHALK,

FSM6U10 was release 14/5/2021. Windows 11 was released after this on 5/8/2021. Update 10 could not be confirmed compatible with Windows 11 as it came out before Windows 11 was out. This will be the same for all versions released prior to the Windows 11 release.

This does not mean that they will not work, just that it would not have been possible to test its use with Windows 11 and so some issues may become apparent due to the OS.

The installation guide should hold the supported software and hardware so that is the correct place to look. 

As for when there will be a confirmed Windows 11 supported release. It is usually around 6 months following an OS release that IFS provide a confirmed version for its support so it should be one of the next FSM releases that has this.

Kind regards,

Lee Pinchbeck
