Our support for GoFiler matches the Microsoft Lifecycle Policy for their operating systems. The GoFiler suite may still run on operating systems passed their end of life (as determined by Microsoft’s policy). However, Novaworks will not provide support or assistance for problems that may arise due to using such operating systems.
For reference, we’ve provided the system requirements of GoFiler Complete, taken from Section 1.2 of our user manual:
GoFiler can run on a personal computer running Windows 10, Windows 8, or Windows 7. Please note that while GoFiler can run on older versions of Windows, only those versions of Windows that are currently supported by Microsoft are supported by the Novaworks development and technical support teams.
