The system software configuration required to support Agile Business Suite Runtime for Windows is detailed in the table below.

Required Item	Comments
Windows Server 2016 Standard, Datacenter (LTSC) v1607 Windows Server 2022 Datacenter Edition (latest update)	Windows 10 is not supported on the AB Suite Windows Runtime production environment, but can be used for testing purposes. You require latest updates for testing. Other Windows Operating System editions, such as Home or Server Core Editions are not supported and might not work with AB Suite 7.0 Runtime for Windows. AB Suite 7.08.0 currently supports 64-bit Windows 10 (1909 version) , Windows Server 2016 (LTSC versions), and Windows Server 2019 (LTSC versions) only. It does not support 32-bit Windows. Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel versions, such as version 1803, and 1809 are not currently supported.
Qualified for .NET Framework 4.7.2	This is a requirement for all features. .NET Framework 4.7.2 or later is required for AB Suite Runtime for Windows.
Internet Information Services	The version of IIS depends on the operating system that you are using. Refer to your Microsoft information for the appropriate version. This requirement is only needed for certain features.
Message Queuing	This requirement is only needed for certain features.
SQL Server Enterprise Edition 2017 or SQL Server 2017 Express, Developer, Standard Edition	AB Suite 7.0 Runtime for Windows currently supports SQL Server 2017 only. It does not support SQL Server Express and Developer Editions. These can be used for testing purposes only. You require the latest updates for testing. This requirement is only needed for the database server.
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017	This requirement is a must for installing Agile Business Suite 7.0 for Window Runtime on a Windows server. You can install the runtime without Developer or Visual Studio 2017. However, the Runtime is dependent on Visual Studio 2017 runtime libraries, which are freely available. You can download these libraries from: https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads *Note:* x86 redistributables are still required on an x64 bit machine. You should install these Visual Studio 2017 runtime components before installing the GCA. Visual C++ for Visual Studio 2017 is also required as some parts of AB Suite 7.0 Runtime for Windows are built using Visual C++.
Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server	This is a requirement for all the Runtime features. AB Suite uses the TLS 1.2 features that come with the new Microsoft OLE DB Driver for the SQL Server to provide better security during Windows Runtime and Debugger sessions.
