FAQ

NOTE:  Questions not addressed here can be posted on the support forum.

Does ForScore run on Windows Vista and Windows 7?

Yes, version 2.0 has been running under Vista since March, 2007.

ForScore uses a different data location on these newer systems. You need to keep that in mind if you're moving your data from an older computer.
  On an XP (or earlier) computer, data is normally stored in
    C:\Program Files\ForScore\DATA
  On a Windows 7 or Vista computer, data is normally stored in
    C:\ForScoreFiles\DATA

If your license is on a dongle, you may need to download new drivers for 64-bit Vista or for Windows 7 from the download page.

More information is in the Vista section in the ForScore documentation.

There are some potential issues with Vista's DEP (Data Execution Prevention). Contact Beach Bunny Software technical support if you encounter them.
