Windows 8 compatibility - 3/21/2015 2:46:07 PM    Florence   Posts: 7 Joined: 12/28/2014 Status: offline I wanted to buy the newest version of CC for a friend. But this new version has to have Windows 8 compatibility. The box of CC 12 clearly says it will not work under these circumstances. What do I do? Post #: 1

On the link that you sent me up a little higher on the page it states in black letters that this product is not compatible using an 8.1 operating system. I guess I am a bit confused (in reply to Florence) Post #: 3

I will alert the forum administrator and he'll let us know. (and alert the powers that be about the conflicting info on that web page) < Message edited by ellengard -- 3/21/2015 6:45:02 PM > (in reply to Florence) Post #: 4

They test for functionality and compatibility. If the testing passed quality assurance standards, Encore updates the compatibility of the product of the description page. This means that if any customer with Win 8.1 emails us for technical help with the product, we can support it because Windows 8.1 is listed. I will also follow up on Monday too and check on this. I have run this product on a test machine running Windows 8.1 64 bit and did not notice anything out of the ordinary that breaks the product. You can buy our stuff with confidence because we offer a money - back guarantee if you are not completely satisfied with the product. < Message edited by TMLFAN4LIFE -- 3/21/2015 8:28:08 PM > _____________________________ Jason Carver Encore Sales Department and Customer Service www.encore.com For Tech Support, visit http://support.encore.com (in reply to Florence) Post #: 5

Hope this will help. _____________________________ David (in reply to JasonC) Post #: 6
