Release Notes:
Product: Solid Edge
Date: 16-Jan-2013
Note: Maintenance Packs are all inclusive and can be installed on top of the base
release or any released Maintenance Pack.
This Maintenance Pack can be installed on top of Version:
--- Windows 8 ---
Solid Edge ST6 will be the first release to support Windows 8.
Solid Edge ST5 does not support Windows 8. Any ST5 issues that are
specific to Windows 8 or IE 10 cannot be addressed until ST6.
Based on limited testing, most Solid Edge operations (Part, Sheet Metal,
Assembly and Draft) work the same as on Windows 7 and Windows 8. On
Windows 8, we highly recommend installing Solid Edge ST5 to a non-default
location (somewhere other than the default Program Files folder).
In some cases, .NET 3.5 had to be manually activated to use Solid Edge
Tutorials, Insight, and Simulation Express.
Solid Edge License Utility, License Borrowing, Embedded Client, Insight
XT, Web Publisher, and Engineering Reference have known problems on
Windows 8 and will not work successfully with ST5.
