Freedom Scientific Announces End of Installation on Windows 7, 8.x, and
Windows Server prior to 2016

(Clearwater, FL - July 20, 2021)

Freedom Scientific today announced changes starting with the 2022 software
releases, coming in the Q4 of 2021. The 2022 versions of JAWS, ZoomText and
Fusion will no longer be compatible with older versions of Windows and will
therefore be blocked from installing. Support of these older Operating
Systems has already been dropped by Microsoft over the past few years.

Customers purchasing Freedom Scientific Software at version 2022 or higher,
will still be able to use their license on these older operating systems,
however they will be instructed to download and use earlier software
versions of JAWS, ZoomText or Fusion.

 

Regards,

 

Curtis Chong
