VB6 runtime to be supported on Windows 7

  • Article

It has been officially announced that support for the VB6 runtime will be extended through the lifecycle of Windows 7. For more information you can check out the “Support Statement for Visual Basic 6.0 on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7” on MSDN at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vbrun/ms788708.aspx. This does not in any way change the fact that extended support for the VB6 development environment has been retired (https://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?p1=2971) and that support is now only available through a custom support agreement.
