I have tested back to FlexSim version 7.0 and they all work just fine in Windows 11.

Our system requirements for our latest version, 22.0, have been updated to show compatibility with Windows 11.

As Joerg mentioned and as is stated in our system requirements, FlexSim is not compatible with ARM processor architectures. You must use a x86 or x64 architecture, and only x64 for FlexSim's latest versions. FlexSim versions before 7.0 only took advantage of x86 (32-bit) architecture features. FlexSim 7.0-20.2 had versions for both x86 and x64 (64-bit) architectures. FlexSim versions 21.0 and onward are x64 only.

earlier Versions probably. I haven’t seen any problems with windows versions released for earlier FlexSim versions. Only Windows RT was not compatible, but that wasn’t a surprise. This Windows was made for a different processor architecture.

@Ben Wilson Hi, I'm wondering could FlexSim version 21.2 works fine in Windows 11? Because the website only shows that this version support Windows 10.

Thanks for your reply!!

Thanks for sharing your experience, @Jacob W2.

@Kenny12392757 Microsoft has done a good job with Windows compatibility over the years. Currently any FlexSim version that runs in Windows 10 will also run just fine in Windows 11.

If you're having any trouble installing or running FlexSim, please try the suggestions in the article FlexSim Installation or Startup Error.

We don't go back through all our historical documentation and update it every time Microsoft releases a new operating system. The system requirements you'll find in FlexSim's documentation are accurate for each version at the time of that version's launch.
