Microsoft Windows Vista Compatibility
EndNote X1
EndNote X1 is compatible with Windows Vista.
EndNote X and earlier versions
Based on our tests with EndNote versions 8.0.2, 9.0.1, and X.0.2,
we have identified the following compatibility issues between EndNote
and Microsoft Windows Vista. It is possible to install and run
these versions of EndNote without Vista-specific compatibility
issues with the exceptions listed below. EndNote versions prior
to 8.0.2 have not been tested for compatibility as these older
versions are no longer supported. Earlier EndNote versions may
be upgraded for continued compatibility.
If you encounter a technical problem and you are running Windows
Vista, please report it to technical support. We will do our best
to resolve the issue or find an acceptable workaround. We will
post information about any known Vista compatibility issues here.
Known Windows Vista Compatibility Issues
1. The location of the Word Startup folder is different on a Vista
PC than previous versions of Windows, so the Cite While You Write
(CWYW) tools may need to be manually installed. Click
here for instructions.
2. On a Vista PC, in Word, if you click on the EndNote X CWYW
Preferences button in the EndNote X toolbar, a "The parameter
is incorrect" error appears, making it impossible to change
CWYW Preferences. These preferences can be set within your Windows
Registry, if you need to change one of the default settings please
contact Technical Support for details.
3. Direct Export will not work if you choose to send the records
to a currently opened library. The exception to this is that if
you had opened a given library by using Direct Export and selecting
that library, you can continue to send references to that library
with subsequent Direct Exports in the current library session.
4. After installing EndNote, be sure to reboot your computer to
avoid errors when running EndNote for the first time.
5. Be sure to update to the latest patch available for your version
of EndNote, which can be found here
