Windows 11 - Inventor 2021

luca.guthier — Thu, 17 Aug 2023 07:35:00 GMT

Hi there,

we are currently using Inventor 2021 due to automation tools we connected to our program.

Now I found out that Windows 11 won't support using Inventor 2021.

Do you think that there'll be a way to install Inventor 2021 on Win11?

Our IT-Department will make a test and install Win11 + Inventor 2021, but still I am asking myself, will Autodesk still support using older Versions? With other programs I recognized, that they are still running on newer Windows, even if they aren't officially approved for that.

Thanks in Advance,

Luca 🙂

Hi!

Despite not supported (Inventor 2021 was developed to the current Windows in 2020), it should still work in Windows 11.
Update windows 11 and All the Inventor updates available.

2021 is not supported on Windows 11

but the installer does not stop you from installing it on Windows 11

Hi! Though Win11 isn't listed as a supported OS in the Inventor 2022 and 2021 system requirements, it should just work. We do have 2021/2022 installed internal Win11 machines for automation purposes, so it can work. If you see an issue, please let us know.

Many thanks!
