Dear of Autodesk
I have an educational license as a professor and I downloaded Revit 2020 on a computer with Windows 8.1. Installation stop because I've Windows 8.
I look in "System requirements" and says that Revit 2020 products work on Windows 10 but can work with Windows 7 as a minimum requirement.
What happens with Windows 8? Is impossible to use Revit 2020 without Windows 10?
Thank you or your answer.

You can check below is not supported the windows 8
hello, i'm not the OP here. thanks
I just learned that I have to upgrade my OS to even install Revit 2020. It's bad enough that I have to maintain multiple versions of the software because of your incredibly user-unfriendly lack of version-to-version compatibility.
What is the reason for not supporting Windows 8? Hope it's a good one...though I'm hardly surprised. Thanks for nothing AutoDesk, I truly resent that I need your products.
You can install Revit 2020 on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. Can only be installed via Autodesk desktop app, there is no silly protection in this installation for 2020.
hi,
are you find a solution for this problem ?

No problem. 🙂

(It's good to have revit 2019 installed for this installation for 2020 from Autodesk desktop app)
You can bypass this by using "# CB_FUNC=CustomCallbackRevitOSVersionCheck" in the setup.ini.
But what will it break when using this?
Hi,
Could you educate me on how does this one works? I badly need it for my school project. Thank you in advance.
