It definitely helped that Windows 10 has iteratively rolled out changes over the past few years and we have added support for each change along the way.

But this year that fortunately that wasn’t the case. Normally, there are quite a few problems with every release and sometimes we have to redesign the architecture of VueScan to fit the model of a new OS release. We had a chance to download and install Windows 11 over the past few weeks and found that we needed to fewer tweaks to VueScan than we have for previous versions of Windows. But after the cancellation of the Windows 10X project, Microsoft announced at their Build conference that they would be releasing Windows 11 this fall. This one caught us a little by surprise since we remembered back to 2015 when Microsoft said that Windows 10 was going to their “last version of Windows” and essentially all future versions would be iterative improvements on Windows 10. On October 5, 2021, Microsoft officially released Windows 11.

You can download VueScan here or download a specific version here. VueScan for Windows 11 supports 32-bit and 64-bit versions as well as x86 (Intel) and ARM. We installed Windows 11 and are now building VueScan for Windows on Windows 11. We are proud to announce that as of today we can officially say that VueScan is compatible with Windows 11.
