FAQs for MADE compatibility with Windows 7
In this article, you will learn about the compatibility of MADE software with Windows operating systems and the supported license server versions.
Q: What is the compatible version of MADE supported by the Windows 7 platform?
A: The MADE software is only supported on Windows versions currently supported by Microsoft. These include the current versions of Windows 10 (support ends October 14, 2025) and Windows 11. Windows 7 is not supported.
Q: What version of the license server should be used for the compatible version (Win 7 support)?
A: Offline Activation is the easiest option for a few computers running the MADE software in a dark environment — this method doesn't require a license server. For larger numbers of PCs or for floating licenses, a Zentitle Local Daemon server is needed.

A: Yes.
