Endpoint Protection

Hi,

As System requirement in https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.INFO3982.html,

I installed SEPM on 'Windows 10 Professional 64-bit'.

By Symantec diagnostic Tool v2.1, I got Error

"Error Your operating system version (Windows 10 Professional 64-bit) is not supported."

Questions are:-

1. How SEPM allow to install it even System requirement is not meet?

I think:- Installation process should check first what is OS, then allow user to go further.

2. If Current SEPM allow to install it, then why not it should be work perfectly?

I think:- All major feature works in said OS, then Symantec should think about develop SEPM OS independant.

Thanks,

Regardless of it installing, seemingly without issues, I'd keep it on supported architecture. If you ever run into an issue, you'll be told it's not supported and you'll be on your own to work through it.

As SEPM are more geared toward 'Server', it now only supports Server operating system and no longer supports desktop operating system. You will need to install it on a supported server operating system as per to the requirement list.

Hi MandarKhire,

I know of no plans to offer official support for SEPM installation on Windows desktop operating systems such as Windows 10.  I would also echo the advice from Brian and Tony, to please install any SEPM intended for management of production clients on a supported OS:

I have also installed SEPM onto Windows 10 for quick testing purposes.  It can work okay in these scenarios, but it is still considered an unsupported platform, and would not be appropriate for use in production.  Thanks for your query.
