Scheduled

As PAR prepares for the PAR POS 5.17 release, we want to give you advance notice of a new requirement so you have time to prepare before your upgrade.

PAR POS 5.17 Kitchen terminals require the Microsoft .NET 10 Desktop Runtime. To help avoid upgrade delays or failures, please verify that the .NET 10 Desktop Runtime is installed on all Kitchen terminals before your upgrade night. Your PAR POS representative will share your specific upgrade date and a reminder of this requirement ahead of time.

Please note: Microsoft does not support .NET 10 on the following operating systems:

Windows 7 (Build 7601)
Windows 8.1 (Build 9600)
Windows 10 Version 1507 (Build 10240)
Windows 10 Version 1511 (Build 10586)

These operating systems are therefore not supported for PAR POS 5.17 Kitchen terminals and may fail during or after upgrade. If you have Kitchen terminals running any of these versions, please plan to update or replace them before your upgrade.

For full system requirements and supported operating systems, please review the PAR POS System Requirements documentation:
https://product-docs.partech.com/docs/par-pos/system-requirements/POS-System-Requirements

If you have additional questions, please contact your PAR POS representative or email us at support.PARPOSsoftware@partech.com.
