We’ve seen Microsoft do that already with Windows XP: Internet Explorer 10 and 11 are just not supported. That means that at some point, software vendors will remove XP support from future versions. Now, if we’re asking if future versions of Macrium will work on a Windows XP machine, the answer’s eventually going to be “no”. You could simply keep using the version of Macrium you have today on your Windows XP machine, regardless of what Macrium decides for future versions. My guess on that remains the same: probably for a while.īut what you have today will keep on working just as XP itself will keep on working.

When we talk about “will it keep working?” what we’re really asking is “will future releases of this software work?”

And that’s true for any software that currently runs on XP.īut (and this is a pretty big “but”) there are a couple of things that we can say.įirst, the version that you have right now will keep on working.

My guess, and it’s only a guess, is that the program will work for “a while”. However, I do want to speculate a little bit because this is a really important issue for XP users everywhere, and it applies to so much more than Macrium Reflect. The short answer here is that I honestly don’t know.
