Running Knitware on Windows Vista

  1. Knitware version 2.50.2 was tested by Great Knit Designs (GKD) on
    Windows Vista Business Edition. It installed and ran in "native
    mode".
  2. Numerous problems were presented when trying to install and run
    Knitware on Windows Vista Home Edition. some users found
    resolution; some did not.
  3. There is also a Professional Edition of Vista, but GKD support staff
    has not tested Knitware specifically on the Professional Edition.
  4. No edition of 64-bit Vista can run Knitware.
  5. Consult your Vista documentation for information about running
    older (XP) 32-bit applications
  6. Versions of Knitware that pre-date version 2.50.2 are unlikely to run
    on any edition of Windows Vista.
Effective November 1, 2012:
VISTA (any version or edition) IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED  FOR KNITWARE
