Once our vendors certify that key applications used in our environment are compatible, we will notify you that it is safe to install this upgrade.<\/p>\n

Important: Microsoft and Apple Upcoming Operating System Updates and Examplify Compatibility<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

Microsoft and Apple have announced the upcoming release of new operating systems Windows 11 24H2 and macOS Sequoia, though the official dates are not yet available.<\/p>\n

ExamSoft is currently testing Examplify\u2019s compatibility with these new operating systems. Certifying Examplify\u2019s compatibility can only be completed after final versions of the new operating systems have been released because Microsoft and Apple may make key changes right up until release.<\/p>\n

Exam-takers should not update their devices to the new Windows and Mac operating systems until we announce Examplify\u2019s compatibility with the new versions<\/strong>.\u00a0This includes beta versions that may be available to exam-takers prior to their official release dates.<\/p>\n

If you are concerned that your operating system may automatically update, please check out this article for information on disabling automatic updates<\/a>.<\/p>\n
