Would I be able to access files I've saved with Windows 7, even if I'm using Windows 8 or Windows Vista on this computer?

When you install a new version of windows you have the option to back up all your old files in a folder called "Old Windows" that you can access once the OS is up and running.

I am still in the past with Windows 7 and cannot answer your question. fyi, it acts as an add on to Office (also acts separately) so that would be important to check.

Windows Vista is the same way. Although I haven't tried Windows 8 yet I am afraid it may be included in this same trend.

Yes. Your computer will format the drive to work with whatever operating system you are using.

I'm using it with Windows 7 but it will be possible if you will format with Apple file system.

Vista is installed on my desktop and XP is installed on my netbook. Would external or portable be better for transferring files from one system to another the way I presently can with a flash drive?

This is a question for Microsoft or Olympus. Just for an FYI, I had a bear of a time trying to the files downs to Win XP so I imagine Win 7 is going to be even more difficult. If you have the choice, opt for a recorder that does direct USB connection with no added software. This one requires very buggy software to connect via USB. Also, the file types this one uses are very difficult to convert to windows files. so........

I've only used in on Windows 8 and 8.1 so I don't know about Windows 7. Sorry.

I'd suspect not. When I upgraded from an XP computer to a Win8 computer, I just plugged the same USB cable into the new computer and it was business as usual. Of course, this was a completely "data" drive, with no active programs on it. Or am I missing something in the question?

I have Windown Vista. Don't know about windows 7. I might add that I was not pleased with the operation of this program. I deleted the program from my computer.

I've done it with window 7 on the same drive. But I don't know but I plan to test I have the 64gb supersonic

Yes. I transferred all the user files from my old XP to my new win 7. Please note that it will not transfer the programs, just the user files. I assume that you have run the compatibility test to see what old programs will run under win 7. You may also have issue if you have set up win 7 to run 64 bit. If you have, you can sometimes have the program run as 32 bit. I would also download the latest version of Easy Transfer software from Microsoft. Good luck.

For Vista, Windows 7, and 8 you wont need the disk. Xp I believe you do. If your cd/dvd drive cant read the disk you can try http://support.microsoft.com/fixit/ or have a pro fix it.

Yes. I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8/8.1 two weeks ago, and had not attempted to open the software since then. Thank you for asking this, because I learned that I had to re-download the product (for free through my Amazon account). I opened the program, and checked most of the features. Everything worked fine in Windows 8.1. A word of warning to anyone who might transition from XP/Vista/7 to 8: upgrade to Windows 8 before creating business plans using the software. I believe I temporarily lost 2 business plans (I have it all backed up somewhere, I just have to find a computer with which to open the full backup).

I believe so. I got a Windows 7 program disk from MS in case I need to reload it. You should probably call the vendor on this to be sure.

No, windows 8.1 is made so that all of your files will transfer over into your new os(win 8). Everything you have will be there when you're done

I transferred from XP to Windows 7 and all went well. Files, pics, email contacts, email records all came across nicely. I don't know about Windows 8.1. Others can probably speak to that better. I would guess they will answer in the affirmative. This is a good company to deal with.
