Default Adobe CC Moves on.

Folks not running current/updated/recent versions of macOS, and Win should be
aware that the next major release/update of Adobe CC will not be supported in
Win8.1, Win10v1511 and v1607, and Mac OS 10.11 (El Capitan). Older versions
of Adobe CC apps, and CC services will continue to function on the old OSses.

Thanks for the information.

I must admit to finding it very surprising (from a programming point of
view) that some releases of Windows-10 are not supported. Of course,
there are new functions on the newer versions, but almost all other
software will run quite happily on anything from Window-7 upwards.
These new functions tend to be very minor, and not enhancing the basic
functions of the OS. It make me wonder whether the reason could simply
be to reduce support calls and the cost of support.

There are ways of making programs believe they are running under
different Windows versions - perhaps someone will make a shell which
provides that for this Adobe software? Having said that, anyone on 8.1
should have updated to 10, and there's no (or very, very little) reason
why anyone running 10 should not now be on the 1803 (March 2018) version.

Doubtless software from other companies will not similarly penalise
their users.

apps that still run on older oses aren't taking full advantage of the
new functionality offered in the latest os versions and latest
hardware.

These new functions tend to be very minor, and not enhancing the basic
functions of the OS. It make me wonder whether the reason could simply

that is also part of it, although a small part.

There are ways of making programs believe they are running under
different Windows versions - perhaps someone will make a shell which

that's simply not possible.

since adobe is using new features that do not exist in older versions
of the os, that mythical someone would need to re-implement everything
microsoft and apple added that adobe is using and do so with the exact
same apis and hook into the os to make it look like it was there all
along.

that is *not* a simple 'shell'.

it's actually a major system update, written by someone outside of
microsoft or apple, who does not have the necessary information to do
it and certainly not the resources. it's not going to happen.

it's much easier to just update to the latest version.

Having said that, anyone on 8.1
should have updated to 10, and there's no (or very, very little) reason
why anyone running 10 should not now be on the 1803 (March 2018) version.


correct, which means that there is no issue with adobe (or other
developers) targeting win10 and later as well as macos sierra and
later.

Doubtless software from other companies will not similarly penalise
their users.


you have that backwards.

software that doesn't take full advantage of what the os offers is
penalizing users.

older win7 compatible apps might still work, but they won't have any of
the new functionality that's been added since win7.
