Recommended Version
The 64-bit Professional version of either Windows 10 or Windows 11 is the recommended version of Windows to use on workstations running the XE3 version of Q++Studio.
The 64-bit version of Windows is required, even though the XE3 version of Q++Studio is 32-bit, because all versions of QuarkXPress are 64-bit, beginning with QuarkXPress 2015.
Older Versions
In addition to the recommended version of Windows, above, Q++Studio XE3 also supports Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1 (not recommended for security reasons).
Versions of Windows that are not supported
Windows Vista and Windows 8 are not supported.
