Does Articulate work with Windows 7?

Apr 27, 2011

We are upgrading all our computers operating systems to Windows 7. Is there a problem with any of the Articulate modules and Windows 7?

Hi Gary!

Can you provide a little more information about the trouble you're experiencing? What happens when you try to run the software?

Please also note that you'll need to have the 32-bit of Office installed for the software to function properly.

Here's more info on that:

Microsoft released a 32-bit and a 64-bit version of Office 2010. Microsoft recommends installing the 32-bit version, and Articulate Presenter '09 will only work with the 32-bit version. Presenter '09 also will not work with the Click To Run version of PowerPoint 2010. For more information, please review the following article:

Christine,

It looks like it was operator error. I inadvertently used an older installer that had a bunch of errors during installation. I found the most recent update, re-installed, and everything seems to be working. 

Thanks for the response though, I didn't know that it only worked in the 32-bit version of Office. That's what I have, but others on my team might not.
