Minimum Requirements for Podware:
- Windows 10/11 Home or Pro on a Laptop, Desktop PC, Tablet or notebook.
- Microsoft Access 2016* or later (it’s a Microsoft 365 app) it’s usually pre-installed with Microsoft 365 but if you don’t have a subscription to 365 then just download the free Microsoft Access Runtime here
- Free Hard Disk Space: 185 MB (works best on 64gb SSD storage or more)
- System Memory (RAM)2Gb or more
IMPORTANT – Please uninstall any trial version of Microsoft (Office 365) before attempting to install Podware, if you are not subscribing to Microsoft 365.
Inactivated versions of MS Access (installed as part of Microsoft 365) will cause Podware to malfunction. There is no need to subscribe to Microsoft 365 apps to run Podware.
Can Podware be used on a MAC? Yes if your MAC has Parallels/Boot Camp + Windows 10/11 Home or Pro. Please get advice from MAC and the MAC forums about how to do that.
Generally we recommend use on a Windows device if you are not familiar with the above.
