for others' knowledge, while not officially supported, it runs fine once installed properly. (unlike QuickBooks which has no working desktop version for Win 11) The sage salespeople told me it will work on windows 11 but to be sure they offer a 30-day money back guarantee if you have issues. My only issue was that since I had a clean windows 11 install and not a win 10 upgrade- apparently windows 11 formatted SSD's can create huge sectors (or report huge sectors?)- and that chokes their database software. Sage, their database software provider, and MS all have notes about the issue and MS has a fix by adding a registry value. The issue actually blocks activation/registration/whatever so while it installs fine as soon as you run it errors out. Once I found the sage article about possible causes and narrow it down to the win11 to big sector issue it pointed me to the MS fix page. Then it opened right up and all was well.
