    I have a secondary workstation running Win 7 that I successfully installed v2020 server (so I could install PU1).  Not the same thing as the workstation install and not extensively tested, but no errors.

    My client has v2020 on a WIN 10 (single user install).  I tried to install the v2020 client on a WIN 7 and was not successful.

    A couple months ago I had trouble with v2020 on a Win7 machine; it wouldn't work.  I can't remember the exact issue, just that "it wasn't really working"; not sure if it was at all also network-related.  I believe that was the only time I had tried.

    We just did a v2020 upgrade last week, where one of the users has a Windows 7 computer.  That computer consistently gets error messages while no one else does.  Pretty sure we've attributed the errors to her Windows 7 workstation, so we are replacing it.

    Curious if you tried changing the compatibility settings on the Sage 100 shortcut to Win 7.

    We've now had success on multiple Win7 computers with v2020.1.  Initially we had an issue but then apparently IT made the following changes fwiw:
      • cross domain trust required password complexity rules of new domain...
        as an extra level of fix I've starting adding the user accounts locally to the new domain.
