Trados 2009 works with no issue Jan 9, 2013

Hi Thor,

Of course it will work. Even Trados Studio 2011 works well with Windows 8.

Have you tried to install and use Studio 2009 on Windows 8 yourself?

However, if you have issues running these older versions on Windows 8 then we would recommend that you upgrade to the latest versions of our software which are SDL Trados Studio 2011 and SDL MultiTerm 2011 as these have been tried and tested by SDL on this platform to ensure there are no problems as a result of the platform.

...at least that's what I've heard from others.

I'm using Windows 8 and Trados Studio 2014 now and that works very good for me.
