    Default NOF 3 to 5 upgrade to 11 upgrade wish to install on WIN 7 64-bit

    I have an ancient NOF 3 (yup..OLD customer) which was upgraded to 5, and much later to 11, running on XP Pro SP 3 (32-bit) and now wish to migrate to Win 7 Pro, 64-bit. Should I anticipate any hickeys loading 3 first so that loading 11 finds it...or what? Will 11 run fine on Win 7, 64-bit? I ask because I tried to load an older AutoCAD on the 64-bit and the attempt resulted in some corruption of Win 7 64-bit files, so better to ask other advice before charging ahead! I also have 2015, uninstalled, but that's another issue for another day. 11 works fine for me.

    I've run NoF 7, 8, 10, 11, 13 and 15 on a 64 bit Win 7 system, all together and without any issues. Just don't go to win 10 or you may run into problems.

    ... you should not use such an old software and regular support for Windows 7 is already terminated since 2015, extend support will end in January 2020.

    I have NOF13 and NOF15 running on Windows 10 without any problem.

    I have no use for windows 10 - bloatware crap. I run both Windows XP and 7 in a virtual machine on my mac, windows 7 on an old but powerful laptop. I see no reason at all to go with windows 10 at all. I only run win 7 so I can run NoF, have no other need for it. I still run XP because I have some old 8-bit programs I still want to run. Both win 7 and XP will be fine for years to come.

    Thanks. I will load 3, then 11, as it is an upgrade needs to see afull version. Meanwhile I will keep it running nicely on my XP Pro 32-bit which, by the way, is still my preferred OS. Familiar GUI, rock solid. Oh, well.

    A Fusion upgrade version will ask for a previous version serial number if it doesn't find one installed.

    In most cases, no need to actually install the old version.
