Windows 7 + Software Distribution Wizard

Usage and Config

(imported topic written by heymon)

I know it’s not official that BigFix supports Windows 7 simply because Microsoft hasn’t released it mainstream yet. However, I was wondering when the Software Distribution Wizard (and other pre-set wizards) will have the “Windows 7” option in the screen listed below (or in this attachment). We have some CO’s wanting to use the pre-set wizards against Windows 7 PCs in their environment.

FYI - We are using 7.2.4.60.

Thanks,

Hey Greg,

We’re working on an update to the wizard and should have it out shortly.

Thanks,
