Will Indesign CS2 version 4 work on Windows 10?

[Alan_Stuart_Wood]

I know it's quite an old version but it does everything I need.  However, I need to ugrade my pc soon.

Unfortunately InDesign CS4 will not have been tested with Windows 7 and we don't support it on that platform.

You might want to consider upgrading InDesign at this point.

Or Windows 10 either obviously.

I am confused by your question... are you asking about CS2 or CS4?

An idea that MAY work to install and/or run old programs in Windows 10

‌InDesign CS2 = version 4

Adobe InDesign - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think the post above from Adobe got the version numbering confused.

CS2 + Acrobat 7 + Audition 3 (and earlier) Activation Server is gone, so read below

You MUST use the special version and serial number on the page, not your original disc or serial number

NOTE that CS2 will not install at all on a "modern" Mac, and when you install the special version of PPro2 on a Win7 or Win8 or Win10 computer, you MAY need to right click the program icon and select WinXP compatibility from the option popup
