Will the latest Illustrator version run on Win 7 pro?

Will there be any problems that others may have encountered that I should be aware of? I'm considering a subscription to get just Illustrator? I presently have Illustrator CS6 and am happy to continue using it but I would love to use some of the latest updates. Any help, suggestions or thoughts welcomed? Thanks in advance.

    The system requirements for Illustrator CC are at Adobe Illustrator system requirements

    I have been using Illustrator CC on Windows 7 since it was introduced. I have the most current version, Illustrator CC 21.1.0. I have had zero problems.

    Thank you for the reply Barbara, That's all I needed to hear and read. I think I'll take the plunge then.

    I might add that although I've not had an issue, some people have had incompatibility with their GPU.

    See Troubleshoot GPU performance in Illustrator

    This is fixed by either turning the setting on or off, or updating the GPU.

    You can get a 7 day trial version of Illustrator to kick the tires.

    I think you will definitely enjoy the new features.
