Running Calypso on Windows 11

Recommended Posts

I am in the market for a new laptop, and with Windows 11 shipping standard I am curious if anybody has had experience running Calypso on Windows 11. It will only be used for offline programming. I know I can downgrade Windows if need be, but before I go through the trouble it would be helpful if anyone could share their experience, be it positive or negative.

We just got our first one up and running with Windows 11 yesterday with Calypso 2018, we don't do any programming on that machine though so I can't comment on that but it does at least work.

I would highly recommend that you contact Zeiss about this. They will give you the standard answer of pointing to the software specifications, which only qualifies Windows 10 and previous Windows versions. However, you may be able to get information on whether "trials" of Windows 11 have worked with Calypso.

Also, don't go cheap on the processor, graphics card and RAM for your new laptop. Calypso, CAD models and scan data drink up system resources. The HP computers sold by Zeiss perform sub-optimal and are expensive for the specs. they come with. It seems like they are selling last year's models at this year's prices.

Thanks for the input. Since this PC won't be running any of the actual machines, I'm going to just go ahead and try it out and see how it goes.

So far everything seems to be running smoothly, no issues. After I've used it a bit more thoroughly I will come back here and update so anyone searching or viewing this thread in the future will have some more info.

Hi Unal,

Sorry for the late reply. I am on the latest version, 2021 service pack 2. 7.2.08.
