So, I have a little dillemma I am trying to work through but I feel there is probably a better way. I've always liked the idea of using a VM in case you have issues and just something you're not using the internet on is a plus. Anyways, I have a variety of customers with a variety of versions of RSlogix 5000 and Studio 5000. What I want to accomplish is having all versions of Studio and Rslogix 5000 all on a virtual machine. I've tried the installation a couple times but when I got to version 27 on Windows 10 I couldnt install properly. Rockwell said its not compatible and couldn't support that. I think that's strange but just my dumb thoughts.
Anyways, Windows 7 works except for the latter versions of Studio and 10 works except for 27 and I think some earlier versions. Does anyone else do this for their customers? Is there a workaround? Does Windows 7 work even for the latter versions? I don't even have a VM of Windows 7 and I can't locate an ISO file anyway. I really don't want it on the host machine. I appreciate any advise for you folks who have had similar headaches.
