Aug 01, 2025 - 12:09 PDT

Monitoring - Support for PAR POS on Legacy Windows Versions has ended. For questions or assistance, please contact your PAR representative directly.

Original notification:
Effective July 31, 2025, we will no longer support PAR POS on terminals and KDS hardware running:

- Windows 10 2015 LTSB
- Windows 7
- Windows 8

These versions do not support Microsoft .NET Core, which is essential for future features and integrations. Upgrading to a supported Windows version ensures uninterrupted service and access to the latest functionality, including the Brink in-store API, which provides real-time data access in-store, regardless of internet connectivity.
