• Windows 10 Enterprise or Professional (64-bit only) version 1909 or later

Note
- Support for Windows 11 will be announced in a Solid Edge 2022 maintenance pack.
- Windows Home Edition is not supported.
- We recommend that you not run Solid Edge on Server operating systems.
- Solid Edge stops certifying new releases against an operating system shortly after Microsoft drops mainstream support for it. Microsoft dropped mainstream support for Windows 7 in January 2015. Microsoft dropped mainstream support for Windows 8.1 in January 2018.
- As a result, Solid Edge no longer installs on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.
