Table 1 Issues resolved at the 2020.1 release
Windows 7 Support
As you may be aware, Microsoft ended their support of Windows 7 (W7) on January 14, 2020. Accordingly, 2020.1 will be the last release which we will routinely support W7. As a rule, we are bound to follow Microsoft’s lead when it comes to support of their legacy operating systems. From 2020.2 onward we will not be testing against W7 and can make no guarantees regarding its performance on this operating system.
