Doc-To-Help on Windows 11

[Jack Konings]

Hi all,
After enquiry I just heard from Madcap that there will be no further development on Doc-To-Help and that Windows 11 is not supported. Is there anyone already working with Doc-To-Help on Windows 11? Any experience anyone?
Thanks in advance for your replies

Hi all,
Just an update. Installation on a Windows 11 machine fails during registration of the trusted certificate. It fails with the latest install and also an earlier version. So this is a no go with a clean install.
Maybe it is possible to upgrade a Windows 10 machine with Doc-To-Help already installed to Windows 11.
Does anyone have any experience with that?

Hi all,
And a final update. I tested installation on a windows 10 machine and upgrading that machine to windows 11. This procedure works.
Of course, no one known what will happen with any next windows/office update/upgrade. But for now, Doc-To-Help is still useable with windows 11 this way.

Appreciate you keeping this updated even though no-one here could help you!

Hi Jack,
Sorry for my late response. I can tell you that D2H v6 is running on Windows 11 without any problems. That's the good news. The bad news is indeed that this product is end-of-life. I have submitted a vulnerability bug many times, about 'old' jQuery being used in NetHelp themes, but MadCap is unwilling of updating that. They proposed transitioning to MadCap Flare....
