Microsoft tells me ViceVersa Pro is not compatible Vista ?

Hello there,

I am having a windows update problem (unrelated with ViceVersa to my feeling) and I am in contact with Microsoft support. After a few checks and mail exchanges they anayzed my configuration and told me that, amongst a few other softwares, that ViceVersa Pro is not compatible with Vista. I quote them (english translation from french) : "ViceVersa is not compatible with Vista and it utilizes the function CRC".

I am not sure about their statements since I am using ViceVersa Pro for several months with no apparent problems, but thought it might be useful to know about this if you have any comment ? What is the function CRC ? May be this is just because ViceVersa has not been "certified" by Microsoft merely.

Your comments are welcome.

Hello,

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I think the statement you received from Microsoft support must be a standard support reply related to applications that have not been "certified" by Microsoft.
ViceVersa PRO does work fine on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 too.

Regarding the CRC part, sorry, I have no idea. ViceVersa PRO does use CRC calculation for files (this is optional, in the profile settings), but not sure why would this be an issue for Microsoft.

thanks
