Installing Wordsearch on Windows

Nathan Parker

I currently have my Wordsearch installation on my old iMac running High Sierra as a backup in case I need to access anything in Wordsearch.

I'm about to install Windows 10 on my newer iMac Pro for a handful of work apps (likely through Boot Camp since the apps need the full power of my Mac's graphics card, which might be overkill for Parallels/Fusion; still double-checking on that one).

Is there any benefit for me to install a copy of Wordsearch on the Windows side so I also have Wordsearch running on my iMac Pro on the Windows side? I have a backup of my license files and could migrate my library from the old iMac, so the install itself would go quickly.

Thanks again!

Also, what is the minimum Windows OS requirement for Wordsearch 12? I'll be installing Windows 10, so I know I'll be set. Just wanted it for clarity though. Thanks!

Nathan,

  For the Wordsearch 12 I can send you an email to download the Wordsearch 12 for Windows.  You just need to sign in with your Wordsearch/Lifeway account to download your books.

The benefit for Wordsearch for Windows vs Mac was the Mac version had some features disabled because it wouldn't work on the Mac side.

Installation Requirements for Wordsearch 12 for PC

1. Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, and Windows 7 
2. At least 2 GBs of RAM
3. At least 200 MBs of free space just for the WS 12 program
4. Anywhere from 1 - 35 GBs of free space for your books. (This amount depends on how many books you have.)
5. A fast and reliable internet connection
