System requirements

Minimum recommended requirements

The recommended minimum specification for Elevate 9 is Windows 10. If your PC meets the requirements to run Windows 10, it will run Elevate.

The minimum screen resolution required is 1024 x 600 pixels. Machines with more memory and faster processors significantly enhance the speed of analysis.


Older versions of Windows

If you have a Company License or are using Elevate Express, older operating systems (from Windows 7) will normally work. However, this cannot be guaranteed as we no longer have facilities to test these. If you have a single-user license and use a HASP key to unlock the software, you are more likely to have difficulties with older operating systems as the HASP security software is more closely integrated with the operating system.


Elevate on servers and virtualisation platforms

Elevate will not usually work on server versions of Windows or virtualisation platforms as it is designed to operate on local machines.


Elevate on MacOS

Historically, Elevate could be run on a Mac using the desktop virtualisation software Parallels Desktop. This appears no longer to be the case, as the Windows version that is now installed with Parallels is limited. This will be addressed through the online version of Elevate, which is currently under development and platform-independent.
