    I tested it on Windows 11 22H2 via VirtualBox. (Because I don't want to move to Windows11, I wait for Windows 12.

    Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2   with 22H2 Windows 11.

    ALL WORK.

    - fin.exe + Cronus Database    

    - finsql.exe + SQL Server 2016 + SQL Cronus Database

    all you need to do is right-click the exe file, properties,  and tick run this program to in compatibility mode to Windows 7.

    for both fin.exe and finsql.exe ..  do the same way.

    Hope this help.

    hi

    Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 is not officially supported on Windows 11. The highest version of Windows that is officially supported by Dynamics NAV 2009 is Windows 8.1.

    While it may be possible to install and run Dynamics NAV 2009 on Windows 11, there may be compatibility issues and limitations that arise due to the differences in the operating system. These issues could impact the stability and performance of Dynamics NAV 2009, as well as potentially cause data corruption.

    It is recommended that you upgrade to a more recent version of Dynamics NAV or Dynamics 365 Business Central that is officially supported on Windows 11 to ensure full compatibility and support from Microsoft.

    No, I don't think there is a workaround, except what Zhu describes - running in a VM.

    Everyone who says NAV2009 is working for them on Windows 11 is probably on version 21H2, not on 22H2. It worked fine for me too on 21H2, but stopped working when we upgraded to 22H2.

    Anyway, we have moved to Business Central in the meantime, so for us it is less of an issue now.

    We have the same problems as Marcw

    Environment:

    Our SQL database runs on a SQL Server 2005 on a Windows Server 2003

    "No connection to server" error

    But if I access a SQL database with a SQL Server 2012 on a  Windows Server 2012, everything works under Windows 11 22H2

    It looks like the update has issues with the old SQL Server 2005...or Windows server 2003

    I found the following entry in a forum

    SQL server 2005 is out of supported for many years, suggest you upgrade your SQL server 2005 to a newer version. And SQL server 2005 is not supported for TLS 1.2. TLS 1.2 is supported for SQL server 2008 and

    But that didn't worknewer version.

    Please disable TLS 1.2 and enable TLs 1.1 or 1.0 from registry key. Refer to this MS document to get detail steps. Or upgrade SQL server 2005 to a newer version.

    But that didn't work for me...

    Maybe someone else has an idea

    Hi, I tested it in my environment, 22H2 can't open NAV2009, but I don't have any problem in the virtual machine, maybe I am missing some components, but I think it may be better to use a virtual machine when you want to run stably.

    Hope this helps.

    Yes it is running. Run by using finsql.exe. Without any installation.

    Just checked again, mine is not 22H2 yet, it works with the GPO workaround.

    Not willing to upgrade to 22H2 as the workaround won't work on 22H2 it appears.

    Amit,

    Can you confirm that it runs on Windows 11 22H2?

    Because I had it running fine for a year in the initial release of Windows 11, but after the recent feature upgrade to 22H2, it stopped working.
