RobotStudio questions

Can I run a licensed copy of RS in a virtual machine? Have been using the online version with no problems on VirtualBox, just wondering if it is possible to create system from backup in a VM. Which version of RS should I use for RobotWare Versions 5.09.6003.06 and 5.15.9024.09? Thanks JimT

    Hi, Yes you can run RS in a virtual machine, the only limitation is that the trial license is disabled. We only test with VMWare though. And you should always run the latest version :) Regards, Johannes
