Linko Product Lifecycle Support Policy

Linko strives to take advantage of technological advances and build software solutions that meet our clients’ changing needs and IT infrastructure requirements. As technology advances and clients adopt new versions of Microsoft technology, Linko is working to ensure it’s own products are compatible with those new Microsoft versions.

The Linko Product Life Cycle Support Policy describes what versions of Microsoft products are supported and when. The policy identifies how Linko software compatibility may affect plans to adopt new versions of Microsoft products.

You must explicitly select the Office 2010 64-bit version installation option. To use Linko Software on 64-bit Office 2010, use the 32-bit default installation.		Rev. 1.7 - Oct 5, 2011
