Is It Possible To Use UAD Native On Win 7 or 8?

[AC222]

Hi and thanks and advance. I'll ask the questions first and fill in blanks everyone so as not to waste your valuable time::

1) Is it possible to mount a UAD native license on an ilok USB and get it to work on a Windows 7 or 8 PC? 2) I know UA Connect is not compatible with 10 but there has to be a way to just install the plugin and have it ready the USB Ilok to show that there is a license authorized?


With all the UAD talk here I didn't want to hiack the discourse so have a new thread on the specific question in the title. I was able to get everything working smoothly on windows 10 using the UA Connect and ended buying a second license to use on a second computer with Win 8 OS.

I understand that they don't "officially support an OS older than 10 but I figured if you had a license on an ilok USB, should still be able to work.

I've only twice run into compatibility issues with other vendors for not using windows 10 or 11 and both had workarounds that were easy to implement. Would be really disappointed if it was not possible to use my license since they are using ilok activation
