Hi all,

We're running RH8.0.2 and are on XP service pack 3. We're being asked to upgrade to windows 7.0 in the near future.

So does robohelp 8.0.2 run ok under windows 7.0 or are there any problems I should be aware of ?

Thanks

Steve

    Hi,

    Officially the latest release of RoboHelp, Adobe RoboHelp 9 supports Windows7.

    Thanks

    RoboHelp 8 was also supported on Windows 7 but only on 32 bit machines.

    True, it is officially supported, but there are problems, especially in combination with RoboSource Control -- see other threads.

    For example, Windows Explorer crashes constantly.

    To anybody else out there reading this thread: Check into it more thoroughly before upgrading to Windows 7. I recently upgraded to Windows 7 (32-bit) and deeply regret it.

    If anybody knows of a list of troubleshooting topics for RoboHelp 8.0.2 on Windows 7, please post it here.

    Thanks!
