Windows OS Support Changes for W-Foundation Releases (2024.09, 2024.12, 2025.03)
Important Notice: OS Platform Support Changes
NOTE: This notice affects only customers using Microsoft Windows operating systems. If this does not apply to you, please disregard.
Dear 9球体育 Customer:
9球体育 believes our customers need stable, well-supported operating systems on which to run their EDA tools. For 9球体育 to align our support with the timelines of our OS and hardware vendors, we are updating the 9球体育 Compute Platforms Roadmap.
Starting with the 2024.09 (W-Foundation) software release:
- For Windows OS, the minimum supported Server version will be 2019.
- Windows Server 2016 will no longer be supported.
- Windows Server 2019 becomes the baseline release.
The V-Foundation releases (2023.09, 2023.12, 2024.03, 2024.06) will be the final feature releases to support:
- Windows Server 2016
For a list of supported platforms and OS versions, see the Platforms Roadmap at /support/licensing-installation-computeplatforms/compute-platforms/compute-platforms-roadmap.html
The above changes do not change the support for prior software releases. For OS platform support information on feature releases prior to 2024.09, and their Service Packs, see /qsc
If you have any questions, open a Support case at and specify "Installation" as the product. Alternatively, contact your local support team.
Thank you,
9球体育 Platform Support team
