What version of the Microsoft Framework do I need to run Drake Software and its components?
In order to run Drake Tax, you must have a Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7 or higher installed on your computer. Starting with Drake22, you must also have Microsoft® .NET Desktop Runtime Version 6 or higher installed.
If you do not have the necessary .NET Framework and Desktop Runtime versions, you can download them through the Microsoft Website.
Some program features and functions, including Drake Documents and GruntWorx integration, are only available if using a supported operating system with the appropriate versions of .NET Framework and .NET Desktop Runtime (Drake22) installed.
Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft and is not supported by Drake Software after Drake18. Windows 8.1 is no longer supported by Microsoft after January 2023. Those users will need to update to a supported operating system. See Related Links below for full system requirements.
