    Earlier today (09 Nov 2013), I tried to update Reaktor 5.8.0 to 5.9.0 on my Windows XP laptop, and I got the following error message:

    "This product requires at least Windows 7. Setup cannot continue." [or words to that effect].

    The same scheiss hit the fan with the latest updates to Reaktor Prism (1.4.0), Guitar Rig (5.2.0), Kontakt Player (5.3.0) & Skanner (1.1.0), the previous versions of which all installed and ran perfectly on Windows XP.

    I notice that in the specifications of all NI software products, now only Windows 7 & 8 are mentioned.

    Has NI completely dropped compatibility with XP? If so when? Why wasn't I informed?

    Windows XP along with Mac OS 10.6.8 has not been supported for at least the last 12 months.
