Autodesk Products: Windows 10 Support

By Justin Doughty 

We are currently getting a lot of questions regarding support of the newly release Windows 10 operating system.

**UPDATE** As of 30/10/2015 Windows 10 is NOT yet an officially supported operating system across the Autodesk product line. However Autodesk have now provided more information as to compatibility and testing on Windows 10. This includes Windows 10 updates, .NET 4.6 and Language versions.

AutoCAD 2016 is supported with the application of AutoCAD 2016 SP1

AutoCAD LT 2016 is supported with the application of AutoCAD LT 2016 SP1

The 2016 version of most AutoCAD-based verticals should be installable and perform as expected on Windows 10

Installing the English language version of AutoCAD Electrical 2016 requires the most recent Windows 10 update, KB3081448. Other language versions of AutoCAD Electrical 2016 currently fail to install.

Inventor 2016 is supported on Windows 10

While we are currently performing our own tests at Cadline, please check the link below for the current status from Autodesk on support for Windows 10:
