Supported Platforms¶

This article describes what are the supported platforms.

PHP on Windows Status¶

There are two facts you should keep in mind that,

Microsoft discontinued its support of PHP 8.0 and above on Windows as announced on July 9, 2020
All PHP versions below 8.0 are now end of life

So, if you are now running your PHP web apps on Windows/IIS, you can only rely on the PHP community for support. Note that this applies to all PHP related components. Even if you meet an issue (such as incompatibilities) with the closed source IIS components, you are not likely to receive assistance from Microsoft.

To avoid all the hurdles, you’d better migrate PHP web apps to Linux.

Overview¶

Generally speaking, the installers of PHP Manager are designed to work for all supported Windows releases from Microsoft.

Platform specific dependencies are listed below. They must be installed in advance, or the installer might not work properly.
