FileZilla Forums

Hi all,

I couldn't find the info, so I kindly ask here: I'm trying to convince my superior to buy FileZilla Pro, but I need to know beforehand if the program will run on a machine running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard. We would like to use a combination of FileZilla Server, Pro and/or CLI versions, so I would need to know if those three versions will work on that machine.

Thanks for your help!

R.

Windows Server 2008 is based on Windows Vista, which is antique. You first must update to a modern operating system before purchasing FileZilla Pro.

@botg: Server 2008 R2 is based on NT 6.1 (Windows 7 kernel) and still in support.

So it will work then?

It still runs with the latest updates. However, running on OS does not mean being supported on said OS.

About support, no idea, at least Windows 7 (same kernel as 2008 R2) is officially unsupported from FileZilla (only 8, 10 and 11). With "still in support" I meant support from MS (there are still updates).
