Version Checking (Just Don’t Do It) | |
|

Version checking is probably one of the most common Application Compatibility issues that both developers and users are facing. This is another post in a series of posts about Getting Ready for Windows 7. As said, this is probably the most common application compatibility issue that users as well as developers face is when an application fails upon checking the operating system version. A lot can go wrong when version checking is misused. A user might experience a “silent fail” where the application simply fails to load and nothing happens. Or, a user might see a dialog box indicating something to the effect of “you must be running Microsoft Windows XP or later” when in fact, the computer is running Windows 7. Many other consequences to poor version checking can inconvenience users as well. | ||
