Windows XP celebrated its 10th birthday in August, 2011. That’s pretty old as far as operating systems are concerned. Because Windows XP is based on dated technologies, it can be difficult for computers running XP to support more modern software, such as GradeAssist. In most cases, GradeAssist works on computers that run Windows XP, so long as both Microsoft Office and Windows itself are updated with all of the latest patches, fixes, and technology updates from Microsoft. While we do not explicitly support GradeAssist on Windows XP, it is absolutely possible in many cases to successfully use GradeAssist on XP. The best way to tell if GradeAssist will work on your Windows XP computer is to download and install one of the free GradeAssist trials before you purchase. That way you’ll know whether your computer is ready to run GradeAssist or if your version of Windows XP needs to be updated.

Yes, GradeAssist is fully compatible with Windows 8. Because Windows 8 has certain install settings it sometimes does not have the appropriate features enabled for GradeAssist to install properly so you must enable those features prior to install. Microsoft provides directions for this process here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2785188.

You must be using current versions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8. Additionally, Microsoft Office 2007, 2010, or 2013 must be installed. Versions of Microsoft Office prior to Office 2007 are not supported.
