---------- 6.0.0 ( 5.11.0 ) 10.06.2026 ---------- IMPORTANT!!! Now finished support of 32-bit OS including Windows 7. Starting with this release our software runs 64-bit OS only: Windows 10 (64-bit, version 1703 or later), Windows 11 and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025. IMPORTANT!!! Important information for users who work with our software and NVIDIA video cards. NVIDIA announces finish of support for previous presets and bit rate control modes in NVIDIA video card drivers. It results in loss of compatibility between our software and NVIDIA drivers of version 591.44 and later. https://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/591.44/591.44-win10-win11-nsd-release-notes.pdf, item 2.7.1 IMPORTANT!!!
