Windows Vista Supported Software

Below is a list of business and academic software used at WPI.  This list will be updated throughout the year as we confirm that the software is supported specifically for Windows Vista.

Software titles will be marked as "Supported" or "Unsupported".  "Supported" software means that vendor has confirmed support for Windows Vista.  In other words, their software functions without issues on Windows Vista operating systems.

"Unsupported software" includes any software that has either been officially declared as not-supported by the vendor or whose vendor has no official stance on support.

* Please note that there may be completely new versions of some software released by software vendors over the course of the year that is supported on Vista but WPI may not support it due to licensing requirements or due to major changes in the user interface.  For new versions of software packages we will test the applications and work with faculty to make it available next year.

If you would like to see software added to this list please contact the helpdesk@wpi.edu.
