SAP GUI for Windows 7.60 is planned to be delivered on 25th of February 2019 and will be supported until 12th of April 2022.“Restricted support” means that we will be processing issues just like during mainstream support, but in the rare case that an issue cannot be fixed by us, because it is caused by an error in the C-Runtime belonging to Visual Studio 2013 (which is no longer fully supported by Microsoft after 9th of April 2019) we may respond by saying that an upgrade to release 7.60 is the only available solution. We extended this phase by 6 months today due to the announcement listed under “3.”. SAP GUI for Windows 7.50 is in full support until 9th of April 2019 and afterwards will be in a restricted support mode until 31st of March 2020.
If you are presently using this release, please upgrade to SAP GUI for Windows 7.50 as soon as possible. SAP GUI for Windows 7.40 will be out of support by 30th of June 2018 (less than 2 months left).I would like to take the opportunity to announce several important updates regarding the lifecycle of SAP GUI for Windows.
